#GivingTuesday was established in 2012 with the simple goal of encouraging people to do good. Since its inception, the US holiday has reached and has been established in over 60 countries. #GivingTuesday has raised billions of dollars, garnered thousands of hours of volunteer work, and has benefited non-profit organizations in their developmental processes.
The Benefits Plus Team works closely with a few different organizations to help stay true to our core values and give back to our community. The World Health Kitchen is an organization which fights to end world hunger for individuals in impoverished areas. The Welcoming Center for New Pennsylvanians creates opportunities for immigrants and leads programs that develop professional working experience. The Women’s Community Revitalization Project (WCRP) is committed to social & economic equity for low-income women and their families. Believe it or not, there are still many ways to get involved with these non-profit organizations through the COVID-19 era. Check out their websites at https://wck.org/, https://welcomingcenter.org/, and https://www.wcrpphila.org/ for more information about how to get involved.
