YorkCounts part of Gifts That Give Hope

Gifts That Give Hope, a holiday gift fair, will offer a Web site and a live event to help raise money for more than 20 York County nonprofit organizations. The gift fair, sponsored and organized by the Women’s Giving Circle of the York County Community Foundation, will allow holiday shoppers the chance to buy gifts to support the community-building work of nonprofits, including YorkCounts. The live event starts at 11 a.m. Sunday, Nov. 7, at the Strand-Capitol Performing Arts Center. Our gift options include:

• $25 to help us provide savings bonds for students who perform outstanding community service;
• $50 to help us make our Web site more interactive and user friendly;
• $100 to help us enhance our Indicators Report research.

Details on the gift fair and a full list of participating organizations can be found at www.giftsthatgivehope.org/york. Shopping in person at the Strand allows you to browse among the nonprofit displays and learn about all the great work being done in the community. If you can't make it, the Web site went live starting Oct. 5, so you can browse and buy gifts online using PayPal. The site will remain up through Dec. 31. Follow us on Twitter and Facebook for updates.
