Following the traditional spending on Black Friday, Small Business Saturday and Cyber Monday, today is Giving Tuesday, a worldwide campaign to raise awareness and funds for charities.
Today, the City’s Gifts of Kindness Fund (which offers short term financial assistance to residents in need) is sharing information about how the Fund supports local residents in need.
In addition, thanks to support from the Varico Foundation, all donations contributed to Gifts of Kindness today will be matched up to $10,000.
