Community First Credit Union’s Post

As many of you know, I serve on the board for RMA Children's Foundation, a women run non-profit that raises funds for disadvantaged youth. As the back-to-school season approaches, we are on a mission to ensure that Denver Public School students starts the year with confidence and enthusiasm. You can be a crucial part of this journey by making a monetary donation to our 'Back-to-School Drive'! I set a goal to raise $500 towards our back to school drive this year. Your generous donations will directly fund brand-new backpacks and essential school supplies for these young minds. How you can make a difference: 1) Monetary Donations: Your financial support will be used to fill backpacks (donated by the Bank of Colorado) with school supplies, ensuring that each child is equipped for success from day one. You can make a donation here: https://lnkd.in/gFkpJH_6 2) Denver Friends - Attend our annual happy hour at Goed Zuur here in Five Points!

Let's give these students the best start to their school year! #donateforeducation #denverbacktoshool #backtoschooldrive #fundraising #forthekids

This giving season, I want to feature my favorite program: MAKE THE MOVE TO SUPPORT LOCAL SCHOOLS 🍎 🚌 I donate $5,000 to your local Education Foundation when you buy or sell a home. I'm a long-time, active Foundation member. I know just how much our school districts rely on Foundation support to provide quality education. Funds raised provide additional teachers, specialists, programs, and tools that make our schools extraordinary places for learning. This benefits both homes values and school districts. A report by the National Bureau of Economic Research titled, “Using Market Valuation to Assess Public School Spending,” found that for every dollar spent on public schools in a community, home values increased by about $20. This increase directly translates to higher resale values. What is your favorite charitable organizations this season?

If you know me or follow any of my personal Finance tips/advice you know that I always talk about giving to worthy causes as the best way to test your 'money psychology'. If you're in a position to do so, it would mean a lot to my kids if you'd consider a donation to their elementary school by donating to their 'fun run'. Conversely, if you have a cause you'd like some support with... my wife and I make giving 'a habit' and always look for worthy causes to consider and support. https://lnkd.in/gc6VYVC5

Are you ready to go back to school? Back-to-school donations are a great way to support students and schools in need. If you’re interested in making a donation, there are several options you can consider: 1. School Supplies: Pens, pencils, paper, binders, sharpies, highlighters, markers, binders, rulers, backpacks, pencil cases and duo tangs are a few things that students need for school. 2. Monetary Donations: Financial contributions can be valuable for schools to purchase necessary supplies or fund educational programs. You can donate directly to schools or consider supporting non-profit organizations that focus on education and provide resources to schools and students. 3. Clothing and Uniforms: Some schools have dress codes or require uniforms. Donating new or gently used clothing items that meet the school’s guidelines can help students who may not have access to appropriate attire. Gifted Community Foundation has started shopping for back to school supplies for multiple schools in Red Deer, Sylvan Lake and Ponoka. Here is our first haul! #giftedcommunity #helpingthoseinneed #nonprofitorganization #schoolsupplies #donations
