Donate/Get Involved
When you hear the words, “Donate to Charity” you probably think of handing over an envelope of cash or a cheque. Monetary donations are certainly one way to donate to charity, but they are far from the only way you can make a difference. In addition to making a financial contribution, you can donate in a variety of other ways.
