Over the years we’ve written about many wonderful non-profit organizations, large and small, that are doing great things in our community. We’ve also profiled some further away. As you think about making a donation on this Giving Tuesday, we offer these suggestions of worthy organizations, some of which may be familiar to you, and some new and worth exploring.
Inspired by our bee, we are naturally community- and climate-focused so we have grouped the list into three sections, serving people, places, and planet. (And of course some organizations – like Big Sunday – cross over and work in many areas.)
