#GivingTuesday Opportunities for Yorktown and Somers

#GivingTuesday follows up Black Friday, Shop Small Saturday and Cyber Monday by reminding everyone that it’s better to give than to get.

Many nonprofits have organized special activities to honor the #givingtuesday movement.

For example, kick off #GivingTuesday Dec. 1 with the Mental Health Association of Westchester, at Pete’s Saloon, 8 W. Main St., Elmsford.

Here are some local nonprofits listed in The Journal News’ “Give Where You Live” database. Find more in the region at Volunteer New York!
