Our New Year’s Resolution: Village Invest

 

This week we would like to share our reason for the season! As many of you may have noticed, each Friday for the past month we have featured a charity on our page, and here’s why! We started Village Invest to ignite and support the idea of micro-giving. As our communities grow larger and larger it often feels like doing a little does not count;

“If you wait until you can do everything for everybody, instead of something for somebody, you’ll end up not doing anything for anybody” -Malcom Bane

 

We believe that even the littlest of efforts from large groups of people have the same effect as one large donor. We began Village Invest this past December by picking a charity each week that we believe spends the most of every dollar supporting the community. We don’t suggest giving to anything that we don’t give to as well and begin every week with our donation to excite others to give as well.

Our Business New Year’s Resolution this year is to expand on our “Village Invest Community: Micro Giving” campaign by picking a new charity every month for the year of 2022! As a small business who has been supported by this community we are so honored to be giving back in a small but consistent way. We are always willing to hear about any charities that might need some extra help so please don’t hesitate to reach out to us with your ideas.

We are excited to kick off 2022 with Village Invest #5, Warren Village!
