#GivingTuesday: 18 local nonprofits accepting donations

Now that you’ve depleted your savings on all the Black Friday and Cyber Monday deals, it’s time to spend money where it really matters: Charities.

#GivingTuesday, AKA today, refers to the Tuesday after Thanksgiving where people are encouraged to make charitable contributions ahead of the holiday season.

Here are several local entities to consider donating to today!

P.S. If you make a gift to any two nonprofits at the Columbus Foundation’s Giving Store, you’ll receive a $20 Charitable Gift Card in return to make your donation go even further!
