Our impact report for the month of April is here! First things first - it’s not just about the numbers; it's about the lives we touch. Together, we've donated 1,119 items in April, reaching out to those in need and making a tangible difference in their lives. Every donation counts, and every act of giving creates a ripple effect of positivity. This month, we received 49 donations, each one a testament to the compassion and empathy of our supporters. Though slightly fewer than March's 65 donations, the impact remains just as profound. Our efforts have directly benefitted 533 residents, providing them with essentials and necessities they may have otherwise gone without. Looking forward, we see 283 open needs as of May 6, a significant increase from the 77 in March. But with each need comes an opportunity for us to make a difference, to extend a helping hand, and to spread hope and kindness. None of this would be possible without YOU - our amazing community of donors, volunteers, and supporters. Your dedication, generosity, and passion drive our mission forward, and for that, we are endlessly grateful. Let's continue to stand together, to lift each other up, and to make a positive impact in the world. Together, we are changing lives, one donation at a time. #CommunityImpact #GiveBack #SpreadKindness #TogetherWeCan #MakeADifference

🎄 Introducing the Angels of Joy: Gifts for Teen's Program 🎄 This holiday season Erin's Angels of CNY is excited to launch Angels of Joy, a program designed to bring joy to teenagers in our community who are often overlooked during the holidays.

By partnering with us, you can provide teens in need with thoughtful, age-appropriate gifts that will help make their holiday season brighter. Here’s how you can help: Host a Gift Collection: Encourage employees, customers, or clients to donate teen-friendly gifts—think gift cards, clothing, books, electronics, or fun hobbies. Spread the Word: Share information about the program and help us inspire others to get involved. Deliver the Love: Once your collection is complete, we’ll handle the distribution to families in need. Let’s work together to bring hope and joy to those who need it most this season. If you're interested in partnering with us or hosting a collection at your business, please reach out to learn more!

This year, we’ve seen lives transformed: 3,500 students supported, 1,300 therapists empowered, 850 educators trained, and an impact felt in 17 countries. Behind each number is a story—a child finding confidence, a therapist bringing hope, an educator changing lives. None of this would be possible without people like you. If you or someone you know is considering where to direct year-end donations, we’d be honored if you’d keep NILD in mind. We know not everyone is in a position to give right now, and sharing our story (and yours!) is just as powerful. Learn more about how donations drive change here: nild.org/donors

It's a Day to Do Good Today is GivingTuesday—a global day of generosity that reminds us of the power of giving back. One of the things I appreciate most about this day is the opportunity to learn about the causes and organizations that matter most to all of you. For me, Giving Tuesday is a chance to highlight an organization that holds a special place in my heart: Girls on the Run of Southeastern Wisconsin. As Board Chair, I am lucky enough to directly see the impact this nonprofit makes in the lives of young girls. Here’s why I’m so passionate about Girls on the Run: 🌟 Building Confidence: Through programs that combine physical activity and life skills, we empower girls to unlock their inner strength and believe in themselves. 🌟 Creating Connections: The organization brings girls together, fostering friendships and a sense of belonging that stays with them long after the program ends. 🌟 Fueling Accomplishment: Watching a girl cross the finish line of her first 5K is nothing short of magical—it’s a visible, tangible moment of self-belief taking root. I invite you to continue this movement of generosity. Whether it’s giving your time, making a donation, or supporting an organization close to your heart, your act of kindness matters. 👉 Who inspires you to give back? What cause motivates you to take action? Let’s celebrate generosity together. Together, we can create a world that’s truly better together. 🌎💛 Where are you choosing to do good today? Let’s inspire each other! ✨ #GivingTuesday #GirlsOnTheRun #giveconfidence #GOTRsewi
