As December 3rd, approaches, our community has a special opportunity to participate in Giving Tuesday, a global day dedicated to generosity and community support.
Here in North Wales, we’re fortunate to have several outstanding organizations making a difference in our community. Let's explore how we can support these vital local institutions.
North Wales Area Library: A Community Cornerstone
Our local library is more than just books – it's a hub of learning, connection, and community engagement.
Here's how you can support NWAL:
- Make a direct monetary donation;
- Volunteer your time and skills
- Participate in fundraising events as a sponsor, vendor, donor
- Sign up for their newsletter to stay informed about needs and opportunities
Organization Spotlight at NWAL 2024
Joy of Sox - bringing Joy through Socks, through the generosity of our donors and volunteers, our mission is to provide joy and health to the men, women, and children who experience homelessness by giving them new socks. https://tjos.org/#
Marvin's Home - we are a lifeline for young adults transitioning from foster housing to independent living. We often partner with Valley Youth House, a Pennsylvania-based nonprofit that offers essential services such as housing, counseling, skills training, and more to vulnerable and homeless youth, including those leaving foster care. https://www.marvinshome.org/about
Mitzvah Circle - created to fill the gaps, to provide items that are not covered by government assistance. Clothing, toothpaste, diapers, and deodorant are items that people need every single day, but not all can afford to buy. We are here so parents can go to work and kids can go to school or daycare. https://mitzvahcircle.org/
Remember, Giving Tuesday is just one day, but the need for community support exists year-round. Consider making regular contributions or volunteering throughout the year to create lasting impact.
