Hayley forgot to wear her LHI shirt at our refugee center in Greece, but resident volunteer, Abdullah, was totally on the ball!
We are excited to announce our new monthly giving community, LHI2G (LHI Together)! By signing up, you will make an ongoing positive impact in the lives of refugee families everywhere, every day.
Recurring donations will:
1. Help refugee families all year long.
2. Spread your giving out allowing you to make an even bigger difference.
3. Help LHI be better prepared with predictable future support.
And let’s be real here—the biggest perk about being a member of this group is that you only have to SIGN 👏🏼 UP 👏🏼 ONCE! Just choose an amount to pledge each month and let autopay do the rest. I mean, we all do it for our student loan, car, and mortgage payments, so why not get the warm fuzzies from donating to a charitable organization…12 times a year, without even thinking about it!
I want to tell you a little about the name LHI💛2G, both because it means a lot to LHI, and also because we want some validation for finally landing upon something good! We must’ve gone through two hundred ideas (most of mine horrendous) before finally deciding on LHI2G. Please like the name! Please like us! We like you, too!
For the less tech-savvy amongst us, 2G is the text abbreviation for “together,” a word that perfectly encapsulates Lifting Hands International’s tight community of passionate and informed supporters. So when we say 2G, we mean everyone, including our amazing refugee resident volunteers at our program in Greece (like Abdullah, pictured above), all you groups who assemble education kits, partner orgs (both local and international), our army of volunteers, the admin team who keeps LHI running behind the scenes, and so many more!
If LHI 2G doesn’t yet include you, come on down and join our community of monthly givers. In return, you’ll get a really cool sticker and a card from me! And we guarantee it will be much more satisfying than paying your water bill.
