National Day of Giving

 

Following Black Friday's consumerism and even Small Business Saturday, followed by Cyber Monday deals, Tuesday seeks donations.

"Every act of generosity counts and everyone has something to give."

While organizations are looking for monetary donations, it can also mean material donations to local resources, such as Family Soup Mutual Aid.  Not only do they host dinners, but they collect and distribute clothing, hygiene products, harm reduction tools, and provide other forms of outreach.

We also have a series of Karma Boxes around town.  Someone recently shared some nice reminders for donating to food banks or pantries:

I have some clothes and some protein bars that I need to drop off.  I actually have an appt downtown this afternoon, so I'm making a mental note to grab those things when I go.

You can also donate your time, helping a neighbor, making someone smile.  :-)
