Top Reasons to Give before the end of the year!

Paying it forward! Taking some of what you have and giving to those less fortunate is a great way to pay it forward and give back to your community.

Setting an example! Charitable giving sets a positive example for children, co-workers, family and friends.

Supporting a cause! Giving to causes you’re passionate about is a great way to be a part of the bigger picture and actively aide an organization in fulfilling their mission.

Tax deductions! When you make a charitable donation, it is tax deductible. What a win-win situation, since you are helping someone else and saving on your own personal income taxes.

Leaving a legacy! You will be building a legacy to leave behind that others will remember you for the differences you made in the lives of others through your charitable giving.
