HELPING NON-PROFITS RECRUIT VOLUNTEERS

 

VOLUNTEERS ARE THE HEART OF MANY NON-PROFITS

 

Volunteers are the heart of many non-profits, and it can be very time consuming to manage volunteers. Well our management company can definitely help you out with this. We help recruit and retain volunteers. Your non-profit will save so much money out sourcing these efforts and will really see the difference in your overall budget, and also volunteer engagement. Imagine having some one out always talking about volunteer opportunities to schools, churches, individuals, and corporate companies. Volunteers are worth a lot and love to be treated with the upmost excitement. Just think, how do you thank your volunteers? If you volunteered somewhere how would you want to be thanked? What did your organization do for volunteer appreciation, did you show the volunteers appreciation?

All those things matter and are important. Beyond Dreams can help you succeed.

Non-Profit of the Week in Jacksonville, FL

Girls Incorporated of Jacksonville (formerly Girls Clubs of America) began as a project of the Pilot Club of Jacksonville. It was incorporated in 1970 and became affiliated with the Girls Clubs of America in 1971. Our first club was located in the Brentwood Housing Development, where we continually maintained a presence until 2004, when the Hope VI Project interrupted our work.  In 1990, Girls Clubs of America changed their name to Girls Incorporated on national and local levels.
During the school year Girls Inc. holds a literacy based after-school program entitled GirlSMART.  The GirlSMART Literacy program is currently in six Duval County schools and we anticipate growth over the next few years. GirlSMART works with kindergarten through third grade girls specifically.
Girls have the right to accept and appreciate their bodies, and are entitled to thrive in communities that invest in their total physical, mental, and emotional wellness. Girls need access to information, resources, and skills to be effective partners in promoting their own healthy development. To help ensure that girls have the support that they need to take charge of their own health, Girls Inc. has launched Girls Inc. Mind+Body℠, which focuses on four pillars that, according to research, play a major role in fortifying girls’ ability to develop and sustain strong minds and strong bodies. They are: nutrition, physical activity, stress management, and body image.
Today, Girls Incorporated of Jacksonville serves more than 1,700 girls everyday in literacy after-school programs, outreach and summer camps.  Our after-school programs provide a supporting, safe environment, offer homework assistance, and enrichment activities like dance, computer, art, story telling, theater, and bullying prevention.

20 YR OLD FEMALE KILLED IN JACKSONVILLE FL

 

STOP THE VIOLENCE

A woman believed to be the clerk of the Metro PCS in the 3100 block of North Main Street was shot and killed during a robbery Saturday afternoon, according to the Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office.

The victim has been identified as Shelby Deanna Farah, 20, whose last known address was on Chestnut Drive, just a few blocks off North Main Street.

Jacksonville Sheriff's Office had received the call at 4:33 p.m. in reference to a robbery. Officers found Farah lying dead behind the counter.

Witnesses told police a man came in with a gun and demanded money, Sgt. Michael Paul said.

“Those individuals ran from the store at that time and then they heard gunshots,” he said.

Paul said the man left the scene on foot. He was described as a black male, approximately 6 feet tall with a slim build. He wear wearing dark clothes and a bandana over his face.

Farah was a 2011 graduate of Andrew Jackson High School. Her Facebook page says she had been head cheerleading coach at Communities in School and had also studied at Florida State College at Jacksonville.

 

Prayers are with the Family, we have to do better. This girl was just working, not hanging out doing any wrong, she did not deserve to die.

T.D. Jakes: 'Fight the good fight' to save Jacksonville's young

By By Beth Reese Cravey

In a rousing message that frequently had his Prime Osborn Convention Center audience on its feet and cheering, Bishop T.D. Jakes challenged Jacksonville’s interfaith community to step up and help save a generation of at-risk youth.
As the keynote speaker Monday at Mayor Alvin Brown’s annual Interfaith Breakfast, the famed Dallas pastor said that it will take the public, private and spiritual sectors working together to accomplish the goals of an increased high school graduation rate, strong families and decreased crime and unemployment rates.
“We need to fight the good fight of faith,” Jakes said. “Our job is daunting. A generation of people don’t have job skills, don’t know how to parent. ... We have a real job to do today.”
For the effort to be successful, political polarization and other cultural divisions must be overcome, he said.
“Rise up and support what unifies us. We don’t have to agree about everything to be united about something,” he said. “I still believe there is hope for our society. ... America needs a healing today. We’ve got to start to right, here and now.”
Fairly shouting, Jakes had the audience shouting affirmations.
“We are the people we have been waiting for. I am the ‘they’ that I hope for. If you see Goliath, tell him here I am,” he said. “We’re going to throw our rock today.”
Jakes, who has been preaching 37 years, is senior pastor of The Potter’s House, a 30,000-member church in Dallas and an author and commentator. His charitable programs provided medical screenings and dental help for Dallas area residents and disaster relief in Haiti, among other things.
When he introduced Jakes, Brown said his message of unity and “stubborn faith” was one the breakfast crowd needed to hear.
“I believe there is tremendous power when people of God work together,” Brown said, “I am sick and tired of our young people being locked up. Let’s take this city back.”
After his speech, Jakes told reporters that Brown and Jacksonville are “trendsetters” for including the faith community in citywide initiatives. He said he has seen some of that in other cities, but “not to the degree that we need to see it.”
The Rev. Garry Wiggins of Evangel Temple on Ramona Boulevard in Jacksonville, who issued the “call to action” that concluded the event, said there are 1,400 churches in the Jacksonville area. He challenged them to heed Jakes’ “compelling message to do something” by joining the Mayor’s Mentors program or by helping the city’s veterans and homeless.
“We can do better,” he said.
