The holidays are upon us - a time for reflection, gratitude, and connection. Unfortunately for some, the season isn’t all about joy as uncertainty around resources increases stress and anxiety. The need in our community is great, so we encourage you to consider taking action on Tuesday, Nov. 29, for #GivingTuesday.
Created in 2012 as a way to inspire people to do good, #GivingTuesday has grown into a global movement that inspires hundreds of millions of people to give, collaborate, and celebrate generosity.
It is held each year on the Tuesday after Thanksgiving, amid the traditional frenzy of consumer deals and sales. Nonprofit organizations like the Hillsboro Schools Foundation, Community Action Organization, Hillsboro Elks, Oregon Food Bank, United Way of the Columbia-Willamette, and many others are working tirelessly to support HSD students and families, as well as others in need in our community. Please consider a donation to one or more of these organizations this Tuesday and beyond. Thank you!
