Each year, in order to celebrate Giving Tuesday, we ask our employees to select a charity or organization that is near and dear to their heart…

We then make a $50 donation in their name and in memory or in honor of someone who is special to them. This year, our employees selected over 20 different charities to receive donations. Some of these amazing organizations include:

  • Alzheimer’s Association
  • Chikumbuso Women and Orphans Project
  • Fauquier Free Clinic
  • Fisher House Foundation
  • Helping Haitian Angels
  • LINK
  • Love for Love City Foundation
  • March of Dimes
  • Mockingbird Ministries
  • SPCA International
  • The National Stroke Association
  • Wounded Warrior Project

We are proud to participate and contribute to these organizations on #GivingTuesday, November 28, 2017. Giving Tuesday, which is now entering its sixth year, creates a international day of giving, taking place at the beginning of the holiday season. It was started by the 92nd Street Y, in partnership with the United Nations Foundation, as a response to commercialization and consumerism in the post-Thanksgiving season, such as Black Friday and Cyber Monday.
