It’s hard to believe that the Christmas holiday is only weeks away. So many people will travel, exchange gifts and eat delicious foods with friends and family.
While making the difficult choices of what to put on the dinner menu and what gifts to purchase for loved ones, let’s also pour into people and communities who need support.
For Giving Tuesday 2022, consider donating to some of Chicago’s nonprofit organizations that routinely support our underserved communities in need of food, shelter, mental health services and more.
Since its start in 2012, #GivingTuesday has grown into a worldwide philanthropic event where people amplify and uplift organizations and causes that work to ensure communities thrive.
Giving Tuesday is on Nov. 29 this year. There are endless nonprofit organizations to assist in Chicago.
Here are 12 Chicago organizations that are either Black-led or directly serving Black and other people of color.
