And today is Giving Tuesday a day devoted to charitable causes and encouraging individuals to give back in their daily lives. Many area not-for-profits are reaching out to their supporters to donate. The New Hope Community Foundation Giving Tuesday campaign will support programs and experiences for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities, according to Foundation Executive Director Tom Burnham.

Speaker 2 (00:24):

We are tasked with raising funds for New Hope’s unfunded programs such as our Therapeutic Riding Initiative, our Hope Garden, different programs we offer throughout the year –  camp Special Olympics. We have a camping trip that folks take each year. It’s the funding that allows us to really empower people’s lives so they can lead interesting, meaningful lives.
