Welcome to the weekend, and welcome to the Saturday 7.
You might be surprised to hear that the U.S. has the second highest poverty rate of any developed nation in the world. But maybe the more surprising thing is that there’s a lot we can do about it. By following Jesus’ heart and teachings, we can help break the cycle of poverty in our own communities. Learn from three experts in the field of poverty alleviation who’ve found solutions you can put into practice today.
Just days after Hurricane Helene wiped out communities in six states, Milton followed, tearing across Florida, again leaving widespread destruction in its wake. NCF givers have responded with support for charities in all affected areas after Helene. We thank you for your continued partnership with NCF and for joining us, again, to help victims of this historic double disaster.
Our list has been updated with additional charities and to reflect where each is working, so you can give wherever you feel led.
Traditional investing is a trusted model for increasing funds available for charitable giving, but it has limitations. Impact investing enables givers to multiply their giving potential. Learn about where impact investing is headed in the next decade in this conversation with Aimee Minnich, founder of Impact Foundation.
Saturday 7 is brought to you by our team at the National Christian Foundation (NCF). We would love to help you create your Giving Strategy™, so you can experience more joy and adventure as you pursue a life of generosity. Find an NCF location near you at ncfgiving.com/locations.
