Contratulations to Givable Giver Tim Bommarito who won our Givable December Doubler! Check out his thoughts about Giving:
"As I got more educated about our region's issues, I learned that almost all organizations are lacking the resources needed to properly address these social problems. So I chose to give.
When I learned about Givable and its mission, I was struck by how brilliantly simple it was. The giving opportunity is delivered straight to your inbox every work day. I cannot think of a better way to start the day than by donating to help one of your neighbors."
Tim is giving his extra donations to Catherine Cares – a fantastic organization that provides support to grieving families who have just lost a child. Thanks for giving Tim!
Get out and Be Givable!
