Last night, I had the opportunity to attend an event supporting Doors to Freedom, an organization providing a safe place, restoration, and hope for survivors of sex trafficking. I’m always grateful for opportunities to learn more about the organizations doing meaningful work in our community—and to spend an evening alongside people who care deeply about serving others. One of the things I value most about this work is that financial well-being is about more than numbers. It’s also about using our time, talents, and resources in ways that reflect what matters most to us. Thank you to Doors to Freedom for the work you’re doing to help create new beginnings and brighter futures. ❤️ #LiveGenerously #Thrivent #DoorsToFreedom #CommunityImpact #Generosity
