Support local organizations this ‘Giving Tuesday’
As the holiday season swiftly approaches and you’re checking items off your gift list, consider showing appreciation for the work local organizations do for the community this “Giving Tuesday.” This year’s event is on Tuesday, Dec. 2.
“Giving Tuesday” began in 2012 as a day to break away from the noise of the holiday shopping season and encourage charitable giving to worthy causes. The organization has since grown into a global network that encourages year-long radical generosity: the concept that the suffering of others should be as intolerable as personal suffering, according to their website.
Can’t donate on Dec. 2? No worries, these organizations take donations all year round!
Participants include:
Boothbay Harbor Memorial Library, Boothbay Sea and Science Center, Boothbay Railway Village Museum, Community Resource Council, Lincoln County Dental and Rebuilding Together.
