Housing, Health & Wellness

While the holiday week brings the warmth of a home and a full, happy belly to millions, this time of year can also be a struggle for millions more. As we focus on gratitude, it’s nice to extend that to action - helping others feel the warmth of the season, too.


That's why we wanted to take this opportunity to highlight the year-end funding requests of 8 organizations in the Nonprofit Holiday Wish Catalog uplifting our neighbors through home and healing during the holiday season, and all year long.
