"Stay Rad" this Giving Tuesday and consider donating to a nonprofit you love.

To inspire you, here's a heartwarming story out of Orange County: Officer Lovelace reached out to GROW about a family in need. The student had outgrown his shoes and clearly his feet hurt. When he received his new socks & Vans shoes, he couldn't stop saying, "Comfy! Cooomfy! Coooooomfy". He walked back to class with a pep in his step and proudly announced to his class, "I got new shoes!"

Triple the meals & triple the giving?!

was created in 2012 as a simple idea: a day that encourages people to do good. This year, that day is today!

Picnic Project is currently assisting hundreds of our neighbors each week with supplemental groceries. Each month, we meet and register dozens of new households that are struggling. Additionally we provide health and cooking education, access to resources, and connection.

For Giving Tuesday, Big Nova Foundation is tripling all donations! Yes - that means 3x the impact! Please consider donating today at https://givebutter.com/NourishSanford

Check out our friends at Kairos Adventures!

Two years ago we were able to launch Kairos Adventures because of the generosity and support of our beloved community. This year, we are so honored to be the recipient of a matching grant for all Giving Tuesday donations (up to $15,000.) We are growing and serving more artists than ever, empowering them to use their gifts to impact the world around them through the arts, drama, community service, leadership classes, etc. Every dollar matters — if you give $5, it becomes $10 and allows us to continue our work!

Thank you for all you do to support our programs and our artists! If you’d like to join us in our Giving Tuesday campaign, you can do it here: https://givebutter.com/AvVNhU
