#GivingTuesday

I'm just going to share a few of my favorite nonprofits. They are near & dear to my heart.

Today should be about paying it forward and helping others. Whether by supporting a nonprofit or helping around your community.

Let’s remember the good in each other.
2/ My New Red Shoes:

MNRS works to improve the quality of life and well-being of children and youth experiencing economic hardship across the SF Bay Area and beyond.

They’ve also been supporting their local Healthcare community.
