The Morningstar Mission is taking part in Giving Tuesday on December 3rd, raising important funds to help support the community.
Created in 2012, Giving Tuesday is a day dedicated to doing good, whether it’s making someone smile, helping a neighbor, or supporting a cause.
myFM spoke with Executive Director Kevin Alkenbrack, who says they’re asking the community to donate $5/Christmas Day meal.
Christmas is a real time for community, and Alkenbrack says they don’t want anyone to feel left out.
He went on to share how the community can make a donation.
For charities like Morningstar Mission, the bulk of their funds are raised during the holiday giving season.
You can learn more and make a donation at CanadaHelps.org.
