The Mighty Dollar: Put Your Cash to Work for Giving Tuesday

It's time to prepare for the year’s biggest day of philanthropy locally! Giving Tuesday, this year on November 28th, is the day to give back and support the greater Omaha metro community’s nonprofits.

What if every Omaha area family set aside a portion of their holiday gift spending to give generously in honor of their loved ones?  Over 80% of local nonprofits said that they need fewer than 200 new gifts of $100 to help them meet their fundraising needs. Can you be one of the 200 for causes that matter to you?
