Our company felt compelled to help these nonprofits, whose fundraising efforts had taken a hit this year due to COVID-19. This is proof that people have an innate need and capacity to come together. I’m extremely proud of the innovators and leaders who pour themselves into these causes and the people who donate both their time and treasure to support them.
