Tomorrow is #GivingTuesday, a global movement to encourage acts of kindness that make our communities stronger. We’re letting you know about five organizations today so you can help tomorrow:
While you’re in the giving spirit, here are some tips on giving from Central Carolina Community Foundation:
  • Plan ahead | Budget how much money you’d like to give. Any amount can make a difference.
  • Do your research | Donate to a cause you care about by using the search tools listed above.
  • Keep good records | If you’re deducting your donations, the IRS requires a tax-deductible receipt for gifts over $250 issued by the organization.
  • Think outside the box | There are other ways to give besides cash. Consider bequests, gifts-in-kind, securities, trusts, or pledging to volunteer.
  • Give local | There’s no better way to spread the love than by gifting your time + money back into the community.
