A Giving November Reminder and Roundup

Giving November

It’s November. This means that the holidays are nearly here. You are probably planning your Thanksgiving feast and pre-ordering Christmas presents out of fear of supply chain delays ruining your Christmas plans. 

But now is a great time to stop and think about those who don’t have everything they need to enjoy the holidays this year, whether it’s money, food, shelter, or missing family members around the table.  

Now is a good time of year to pause, and not just to express gratitude, but to actually give back.

So in lieu of the normal Sunday post from Sam, I wanted to take a minute to link to our series from last year about Giving November.
