Giving Tuesday
https://hq.givingtuesday.org/
This year especially, lots of people, and lots of charitable organizations are hurting. Now is a great time to help if you can.
Lots of local organizations could use monetary or goods donations, even if you can't donate time.
I'm doing OK during the pandemic, so I'm doing what I can to help others. I've been making quite a few donations, volunteering time, and once I'm eligible to donate blood again since my last time, I'll be doing that.

This is great! The kids & I pick a new non-profit to help out every giving tuesday. We spend time picking something meaningful to them. This year it's The Youth Mental Health Project

Awesome. I try and find small, local charities when possible. The big ones do great things, and definitely need donations, but the small ones don't get recognized as much.
The YMH project seems like an extremely relevant organization now. Mental Health is always an important, but too often ignored, issue. Now, with the pandemic, everything going virtual, lack of in-person contact with friends and family, etc, mental health is affecting many more youth than normal.

Good reminder! Just gave to the Lustgarden Foundation in memory of an old friend who died from pancreatic cancer. I usually donate when they do their walk, but that was cancelled this year due to COVID.

Lustgarten does truly incredible work. They are the best of the best.
