Why It Matters:

Do you know how many meals just $1 provides? $1 provides enough food for 3 meals! When $1 goes that far, imagine how the collective actions of community members like you, donating funds, could truly impact lives. Generous donations (of all amounts) make a significant difference for our neighbors experiencing food insecurity. Learn more about donating today at https://lnkd.in/gCNUHW9D.

The holidays are the most important time of the year for fundraising when nonprofits raise the majority of their annual operating revenue. At Second Harvest of Silicon Valley, financial donations are down about 20% from where we were at this time last year, and the food bank is receiving donations from fewer donors. As we move into the final days of December, Second Harvest still needs to raise $4M by 12/31 to stay on track with its annual goal.A staggering 1 in 6 people in Santa Clara and San Mateo counties are turning to Second Harvest for support. That equates to Second Harvest providing food to an average of 500,000 people every month. Last month we served 520,000 people. It’s critical we make our goal and we are asking our community to donate what they can to help at https://shfb.online/hm2023 —every $1 can help provide enough food for 4 nutritious meals with our current match. #FeedingSiliconValley

The evolution of BetterNowThe first version of the BetterNow platform was launched in 2011 with the belief that third-party platforms were the future for charities. However, since 2015, we have shifted our focus to building fundraising platforms for charities' own homepages. Now, we are bidding a final farewell to the old platforms.Read a few words on why we have chosen to close our old platforms and what the future holds for us moving forward. https://buff.ly/3NszRcK

Performance Leader's Feedback for Good program sees us donate up to 2.5% of our software licence fees back to three charities nominated by the client. It's really simple idea: every time someone provides real-time feedback to a colleague using our fast feedback platform, they get to drop a virtual token into one of three charity buckets. At the end of the year, we donate to the three charities, in proportion to the allocated tokens. (A bit like buying a burger at Grill'd or shopping at Waitrose, except our clients choose their charities). If you're a Performance Leader client and you want to set this up in your firm, reach out to Logan Balavijendran. And if you're not a client, but you're curious about how this might work in your firm, please get in touch!#performanceleader #forgood #feedbackforgood
