The beginning of a new year means many things to many people: watching the ball drop at midnight, signing up for that gym membership, accidentally writing “2023” for the first few weeks…and for many, resolutions.
Whether that’s eating healthier, picking up a new hobby, or something else, many of us see the new year as a milestone to kickstart goals we want to achieve. And that same energy can apply to your impact on our community!
To kick-start another year of generosity, we’re sharing a list of new year’s goals you may consider taking on to show up in a kind and generous way for your friends, neighbors and community in 2024.
GiveMN's list of generosity resolutions for 2024
- Give to one (or more!) causes that are new to you
- Start a monthly donation to support an organization you love year-round
- Share a meal with someone and get to know them better
- Volunteer for a nonprofit whose work you care about
- Write a note to your favorite nonprofit or those who care for your community, letting them know that you appreciate the work they do for those who they serve
- Check in on a neighbor, friend, or family member
- Make a donation in someone’s honor or memory
- Give a GiveMN Giving Card as a gift to spread the joy of generosity!
Whether you add one of these to your list or try to complete them all, thank you for being part of Minnesota’s storied generosity community again in 2024!
