New "Giving Tuesday" reiterates importance of charitable organizations

As a way to help out non-profit organizations during the COVID-19 pandemic, yesterday was designated as Giving Tuesday.  It was the second such date in the last six months promoting charitable contributions.  Typically reserved for the Tuesday after Thanksgiving every year, the new global day of giving was designed to help non-profits that have been hit hard by the health crisis fallout.  Door County Community Foundation President & CEO Bret Bicoy says non-profits are essential to Door County’s quality of life.

 

 

Giving Tuesday in 2019 reportedly totaled a record high of $511 million with online charitable donations.  The Door County Community Foundation provides grants and scholarships in the community and has worked with many of the 350 non-profit groups located in Door County.
