Giving Tuesday: Nonprofits To Support In Millburn-Short Hills

MILLBURN, NJ - Black Friday and Cyber Monday have come and gone kicking off the annual shopping season with many digging into their pockets for new presents.

However some may want to give back and donate some of their funds to a notable cause. This is the essence of #GivingTuesday, which begins the charitable season on Nov. 27.

Since its inaugural year in 2012, #GivingTuesday has become a movement that celebrates and supports giving and philanthropy with events throughout the year and a growing catalog of resources, said the organization.

There are charities everywhere, now which ones to donate to?

Many may want to keep it truly local, and help the neighbors around them or the charities that operate right in their community.

Here is a partial list of nonprofit organizations operating or helping in and around Millburn-Short Hills.
