It’s Giving Tuesday, a global day of giving fueled by the power of social media. While you probably have many worthy causes you donate to or fundraise for, let me tell you about these two that you may be interested in donating to this year. 

Parks

I’ve had the honor of being the president of the Ouilmette Foundation for the Parks in Wilmette, IL. We have a purpose of helping spread joy by supporting our incredible parks for all to enjoy. If you have an interest in Wilmette Parks and what we support, read more here and donate: ouilmettefoundation.org/donate.

Boobs

Through Crossfit Wilmette, I’ve helped raise money every year for an incredible organization called Barbells for Boobs (B4B). B4B raises funds that supports the early detection of breast cancer. This Saturday I am holding a fundraiser in Wilmette with Crossfit and The Rock House to raise money toward our gym’s goal. We would love to see you as we gather to celebrate the holidays and listen to the Chris Karabas Band. But if you can’t make it, any and all donations are welcome. More details on how to attend and/or donate here:  https://fundraise.barbellsforboobs.org/coworkersrockhouse. 

So, it’s your choice. You can donate to Parks. To Boobs. Or both. Or support any charity of your choice in any way you can this holiday season. 

Thanks for listening.
