Give Local!
As the holidays approach, many residents and area businesses focus on volunteering or making end-of-year contributions to deserving human services organizations. From buying diapers for Milagro House to serving meals at Thanksgiving, the needs are significant now and throughout the year. This year, to make giving easier – whether its your time, donated goods and services or a financial contribution – the JSID in partnership with the United Way is providing a list of City-based organizations that need your help. Please note that not all of the organizations in this list are United Way affiliated agencies.Visit the United Way of Lancaster County at: www.uwlanc.org
