Give a Gift that Truly Matters

Ah, the holiday season! We marvel at the bright lights and cheerful decorations and fill our homes with the irresistible aroma of baking cookies. Holiday music seems to follow us wherever we go. But while we’re drinking that warm mug of eggnog and wondering what gifts we’ll get, think about those less fortunate. Give the gift of your time this year and volunteer. You’ll find causes and events that fit you best on sites like volunteermatch.org and handsonnetworking.org.
