'Tis the season of gratitude and giving.

Across our community, people with full hearts and tummies are thinking about ways to give back this season. The Holiday Guide to Giving and Volunteering is here to help.

Use the Holiday Guide to Giving and Volunteering to connect to opportunities for service and giving, but please keep in mind that many "day-of" holiday volunteer opportunities fill up fast.

Keeping your dates flexible and understanding that your help will be needed most on the days before and after the formal holidays - while so many regular volunteers are on vacation - will give you more options to connect to service.

There are many great opportunities for people of all ages!
