Philanthropic action is more important than ever as funding cuts threaten essential global health, poverty alleviation, and humanitarian programs. Our Co-CEO, Jessica La Mesa, highlights this in a recent Alliance Magazine article, emphasizing that private philanthropy has an opportunity to fill critical funding gaps. By stepping in, donors can help sustain life-saving global health, poverty alleviation, and humanitarian programs. To address this, The Life You Can Save and Founders Pledge have launched the Rapid Response Fund—a strategic initiative ensuring that high-impact, evidence-based interventions continue reaching the communities that need them most. 🔗 Read the Alliance Magazine article here: alliancemagazine.org/blog/ph… 🔗 Support the Rapid Response Fund: bit.ly/4bl9cIp

Faith has long been a powerful force for generosity. But what does it truly mean to give? This week, we take a closer look at Christianity’s perspective on wealth and giving. In the latest Rationales for Giving article, Father Roderick Strange—Catholic priest, theologian, and former chaplain at Oxford University—explores how Christianity calls for generosity not as an obligation, but as a way to use wealth for good. He challenges the idea that scripture glorifies poverty, instead revealing a deeper call to give with purpose and detachment. "We should not be enslaved by what we possess, but, while grateful for it, we should also be able to regard it with a degree of detachment." — Father Roderick Strange 📖 Read the full article here: thelifeyoucansave.org/ration… In future articles, we will share insights from other faith traditions as well.
