“Ezra missed out on a lot of things because he was ill. His first day at school, learning to ride a bike, his fifth birthday party.” Merley, Ezra’s proud mum. Meet Ezra. He's one of the amazing kids at Great Ormond Street Hospital featured in our new film. Ezra was diagnosed with a severe type of anaemia that caused his bone marrow to fail. He needed a bone marrow transplant and had to isolate for a long time. “We missed out on two years of family life. But GOSH and the services GOSH Charity funds really helped us. Physically and emotionally, GOSH was there for us, and that gave us hope. “The Play Team and all the staff helped Ezra forget about the serious stuff and allowed him to have a childhood in hospital but also the chance to dream big. “I’m so proud that Ezra now wants to be a firefighter when he grows up, a lifesaver, just like GOSH has been for us.”

Organizations like the Brain Injury Network (thebind.org)provide invaluable resources, support, and advocacy for individuals and families affected by TBI. During this awareness month, consider making a difference by supporting the Brain Injury Network. Your contribution will help fund essential programs and services aimed at improving the lives of those impacted by TBI.

This week's appointments were definitely on a different level and tested our limits! We had 17 appointments, spread across 3 vets, 7 more than planned for the regular week-bringing our count to 113 for 2024! Let's look at some statistics from the week! -8 females, 9 males -3 pregnancies -2 pyometra -1 abscess, with infected foot -1 tail amputation -1 leg mass -1 in heat One thing we get asked a lot is how much we spend on appointments, and there are some folks that still assume that we can get surgeries for free. Though we understand that you may not be able to pay for your colony to get fixed, it does not mean that we want to turn you away. To be honest, if we don't help you when you are requesting it at 10 cats, personally, we don't want to wait until the colony starts multiplying! Below are the real charges from each day this week, TNR isn't cheap! 01APR: $218 02APR: $666.39 03APR: $1,125.00 04APR: $219.97 TOTAL=💲2️⃣,2️⃣2️⃣9️⃣.3️⃣6️⃣ Rest assured, when you donate to us, every penny is used to care for these sweet souls! We are always looking for new ways to raise funds!

Support a Family Rebuild Their Lives After Amputation Dear Friends and Supporters, We are reaching out to you today with a heartfelt appeal for help. A dear friend of ours, once filled with joy from a growing family and a fulfilling career, has recently experienced a life-altering event.

This devastating blow has taken away his physical mobility, his ability to provide for his family, and a significant part of his hope for the future. Despite this, his spirit remains unbroken. However, the financial and emotional toll on his family has been overwhelming. We are rallying together to help them rebuild their lives, restore their dignity, and find a way forward. How You Can Help Your donation, no matter the size, can make a tremendous difference. Funds raised will go towards medical bills, rehabilitation, and providing for his family's basic needs as they navigate this challenging time. https://lnkd.in/g-nMaxXj Why It Matters: This campaign is not just about money; it's about giving a family the chance to regain stability and hope. It's about showing that, as a community, we stand together and support each other through the toughest times. **Join Us:** Please donate, share this campaign with your network, and encourage others to do the same.

Chief Operating Officer - National Child Protection Task Force | Chief Legal Officer - ClickSafe Intelligence | Founder - Eguzkilore Consulting, LLC
As a trial attorney, you learn to recite facts in a compelling manner. In doing so, you learn that truth is often stranger than fiction. So let me tell you a story... I left my decade-long career as a prosecutor to join The National Child Protection Task Force full-time in 2021. I had no apprehension. It was a leap of faith in a dedicated group of individuals who were focused on saving #justonemore child from exploitation. However, I had one regret: not being able to directly support my community the way I did as an ADA. I missed that direct impact I was able to give survivors and their families. Then I received an email earlier this year from an officer we trained in New York. That officer was thanking us. He told us about a young girl who went missing - presumably a runaway - in his jurisdiction. However, based on our training he knew something didn't add up. Utilizing techniques NCPTF taught him, they located the girl with a man twice her age who had groomed her via a video game platform. Between our training and their ceaseless work, they were able to recover the girl in 24 hours even though the defendant took her out of state. The defendant brought her to my home county in Pennsylvania. He's being prosecuted by my former office. NCPTF strives to serve all law enforcement and strengthen their ability to recover missing and exploited children. The more we are able to train officers, to assist them in their times of need, the wider the our impact. It's the butterfly effect in action. Therefore, I ask you to consider donating to us today, #givingtuesday, because there is a good chance you can help save a vulnerable child in your own backyard.
We believe that EVERY child deserves a childhood filled with safety and joy, free from harm and trauma. On this Giving Tuesday, please partner with us in this effort by making a quick donation at https://ncptf.org/donate. Thank you for your continued partnership. 💙 #NCPTF #JustOneMore #GivingTuesday #ChildhoodMatters
