Giving Back This Holiday Season

This holiday season can be brighter if we choose to help food-insecure families with children and communities of color who are badly affected by the pandemic.

One way to do so is by donating to Feeding America, the nation’s leading hunger-relief charity. Rest assured that every $1 you donate will help provide at least 10 meals to families in need through their food banks. You can also choose to donate to Feed the Children to help alleviate childhood hunger across the globe.

No matter what gifts you choose, and whether you buy them solo or as a group gift (or if you forgo gifts altogether this year), we wish you and your family a wonderful holiday season!
