During today's episode of Shop for Good, presented by Wells Fargo, I enjoyed learning about the work of Launch Leadership.
Launch Leadership provides transformational leadership development services to students grades 6-12 from all over the country. Their one-of-a-kind curriculum and staff of trained facilitators help students discover their unique leadership potential. Students return to their homes, schools and communities ready to make a positive impact.
This month, SHARE Omaha is honoring Military Appreciation Month by recognizing our troops and veterans, and amplifying our nonprofit members who support them. And of course, these incredible organization who support Military, need your support as well!
Did you know you can shop and do good? We call it Shopping for Good! With the help of our friends at Wells Fargo, we have 380+ local nonprofit wish lists here at SHAREomaha.org for you to explore. When you purchase items they ship directly to the nonprofit's doorstep and you'll be giving them exactly what they need to continue their missions in our community.
Celebrated since 1949, May is Mental Health Awareness Month. This is a national movement to raise awareness about mental health. Now is the time to provide support, fight stigma, educate the public and advocate.
The Kim Foundation strives to increase awareness around mental health and suicide prevention. The belief that no one is immune from these issues sits at the core of what they do, as they offer awareness programming to every pocket of our community.
Let me tell you about the most fun way to give back! We call it shopping for good. This is a way you can give local nonprofits exactly what they need. Simply click to purchase items off local nonprofit wish lists and the goodies will arrive right at their doorsteps. You'll be helping nonprofits reserve cash and still receive the items they need as they carry out their missions in our community.
May is here and so is Military Appreciation Month! This is a month full of remembrance, observance, and respect for military members, spouses, Veterans, and lost loved ones.
May is Military Appreciation Month! In 1999, Congress designated May as National Military Appreciation Month to ensure the nation was given the chance to publicly show their appreciation for troops past and present.
