Hey everyone! We've raised a big heap of funds so far, and thank you to everyone who has made it possible. But I'm hoping we can raise even more! ***For today only*** all donations to the run are being matched! Make your contributions go the extra mile (wink) and donate today. If you are not in a position to help monetarily today, I'd appreciate if you could share this post with others to help spread the word. No need to donate via my link, direct donations to Fred Hollows are also possible (but not sure if these are being matched). Why donate to Fred Hollows? To put it very briefly, could you do your job with a vision impairment or blindness? Could you support your family, or would they be supporting you? Blindness can take away everything from those affected, but you can help bring it back! Many instances of blindness are treatable. More info can be found on the Fred Hollows website. https://lnkd.in/gDjUFZre

Something to think about

The impact of war on children is profound and devastating, affecting their physical, emotional, and psychological well-being in significant ways. Children are often the most vulnerable victims of war, facing increased risk of injury or death from violence, bombings, and other forms of conflict. The lack of access to healthcare and basic necessities can result in malnutrition, disease, and other health issues. The experience of war can have long-lasting emotional effects on children, leading to anxiety, depression, post-traumatic stress disorder. Witnessing violence, losing loved ones, and being displaced from their homes can have a lasting impact on their emotional well-being. Disruption of Education- can have long-term consequences on their development and future opportunities, perpetuating cycles of poverty and instability. War impact on children's innocence and childhood, forcing them to grow up too quickly and take on responsibilities beyond their years. It is essential for governments, organizations, and individuals to prioritize the protection and well-being of children during times of conflict, ensuring that they receive the necessary support, care, and resources to recover from the devastating impact of war.

💡 One of the key things I learned in early retirement is how powerful Donor Advised Funds (DAFs) can be for charitable giving. A DAF allows you to consolidate your charitable donations, providing a tax-efficient way to maximize deductions and reduce your overall tax burden. The best part? You still have full flexibility to support the causes you care about, on your own timeline, while growing your charitable impact. 📈 If you haven’t explored DAFs yet, it’s a fantastic way to give back and manage your donations strategically. #DonorAdvisedFunds #CharitableGiving #TaxEfficiency #GivingBack
