The Challenge You may have seen in May when RAF Financial Analysts Roland Camacho and Dylan Johnston out of the Edmond, Oklahoma office led a virtual helping hands event for the West Territory. Well, they’re doing it again and challenging all of North America to join in on the challenge. We will be walking the week of September 14th and your daily steps Monday through Friday that week will count towards an individual and team competition. The Goals We want to feel connected while we are still apart, we want to raise money for a good cause and we are encouraging everyone to stay active. The Charity We will be raising money for Feeding America and the American Red Cross, in light of all the recent natural disasters. If you are joining the challenge from outside of U.S., and would like to add additional charities to support North America, please let us know. Our recommendation is that each person donates a penny per step on their daily average – that means that if you walk the recommended 10,000 steps daily, we’d ask you donate $100 to the fund with a maximum recommendation of $100, so don’t worry if you blow past 10,000 steps. Also, if you’d like to join the step challenge but aren’t ready to donate, that is fine as well. Tracking Progress There are many ways to track your daily steps via the Health app on your Smartphone, Smartwatch or download the StepUp Pedometer from your app store. In order to track your steps for the challenge, we ask that you can email or text your daily steps to Carollann Romo. (Carollann.romo@raboag.com, 661-904-7558) We will have updates for the team challenges throughout the week. Currently the teams are broke out to Wholesale, DLL, Pacific Territory RAF/RDS, West Territory RAF/RDS, East Territory RAF/RDS, Central Territory RAF/RDS, Vendor Finance and RDS. You can choose your team or let us know if we missed a group. As you’re walking, please take a picture too and we’ll use them to put together a recap video. The Competition Each of the top three individuals with the most steps will receive $100 in their Bright Funds account to donate to a charity of their choice, this is thanks to the Health and Wellness Committee. We will also be tracking the team winners. There are two team winners, one will be based on the total number of steps and another will be on the average steps per person.

Being known as one of the most developed and wealthiest states in the world, it is hard to see the hidden hunger and poverty in Singapore. Nearly 20% of the survey participants in the low-income area reported severe food insecurity in 2018 in a SMU study. In a food paradise country like Singapore, thousands still struggle to put food on their tables. For some, a 2 dollar plate of chicken rice is a luxury that can only have once a week. Covid 19 has deepened hunger and poverty , created unimaginable suffering and devastation. Job loss and social distancing are making it harder to access food. We hope through this campaign, we can reach out to the vulnerable, to alleviate the difficulties and challenges they are facing everyday. Hunger should be eradicated when abundance seems to be present everywhere.

Colorado Ballet’s 60th Anniversary season was originally scheduled to open October 9, 2020 with eight performances of Giselle and continue in November and December with 26 performances of The Nutcracker. Ticketing revenue from these two productions was projected to be between $3.5 and $4M. All of these performances were cancelled due to the COVID-19 Pandemic, the Artists have been furloughed and their 2021 Spring season is at risk. As a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization, Colorado Ballet will depend on fundraising as its primary source of income for the remainder of 2020. In light of this extreme need, Colorado Ballet announces the launch of its Relief and Recovery Fund. With a fundraising goal of $3 million, this fund will help to cover a significant portion of the loss of ticketed revenue, helping Colorado Ballet to retain its world-class dancers and staff and emerge from this crisis as the strong company it has become over the past 60 years.

On Tuesday, August 18, 2020, Governor Gavin Newsom declared a state of emergency as wildfires spread across California. According to Cal Fire, more than 1.4 million acres have burned, 200,000 people been under evacuation orders at various times, 2,500 structures have been destroyed and millions are breathing smoky air. Wildfires, while a natural occurrence, have become more frequent and intense in recent years, thriving on high heat, low humidity and strong winds caused by climate change. In addition, California continues to be a hot spot for COVID-19 cases, further complicating evacuation and relief efforts.

This Fund includes vetted nonprofits providing emergency response in the region.

Hurricane Laura, classified as a Category 4 Hurricane, made landfall in Louisiana in the early morning hours of Thursday, August 27. With wind speeds of up to 150 mph, the storm has already resulted in widespread damage to the region, as well as dangerous flash floods, power outages, and the potential for tornadoes in the surrounding states. The last time there was a storm of this magnitude was more than 100 years ago. Simultaneously, COVID-19 cases continue to be on the rise in Texas and Louisiana. Bright Funds has established The 2020 Hurricane Laura Disaster Relief & Recovery Fund to support the communities impacted by the storm.

We have initially selected organizations that are working to provide immediate relief; the composition of the nonprofits in this Fund are subject to change as we learn more about the needs on the ground.
