On this #GivingTuesday, please consider a gift that just might save the planet. Oceans without whales are not healthy oceans...and without healthy oceans, our planet will not survive. Whales are superheroes, with the power to save the oceans, save the planet, and save you. Please take this opportunity to give a gift with global impact and then go hug a whale! #GivingTuesday #savethewhales #savetheplanet #savetheoceans #dogood

Last but definitely not least in our Colorado Gives Day spotlight: Volunteers for Outdoor Colorado (VOC) ⛰️ If you love Colorado’s great outdoors, you’re going to love what Volunteers for Outdoor Colorado (VOC) is all about. For nearly 40 years, VOC has been mobilizing thousands of volunteers to tackle projects that protect, restore and care for our state’s stunning natural spaces. From building trails to restoring wildlife habitats, they’re the boots-on-the-ground heroes keeping Colorado beautiful. But it’s more than just outdoor work — it’s about building a community that values stewardship and sustainability. VOC connects people to the land in meaningful ways, creating a ripple effect of care that benefits all of us (and future generations). We’re so proud to support VOC this Colorado Gives Day because protecting Colorado’s natural beauty is something we can all get behind. Ready to lend a hand? Every donation made now through December 10th counts toward the $1 million+ Incentive Fund.

The Fifth Day of Yule: Honoring Community and Giving Back On the 5th day of Yule, we celebrate the spirit of community and the connections that bind us together. This day is an opportunity to show gratitude for the support of others and to give back to the people and places that make our communities thrive. Yule reminds us that even in the darkest days of winter, we can be a light for those in need. Small acts of kindness can have a profound impact on others and help weave the fabric of a strong and caring community. ✨ Ways to Celebrate Community on the Fourth Day of Yule: • Feed the Unhoused: Prepare meals, donate food, or volunteer your time with a local organization that supports unhoused individuals. Warm meals and care can go a long way during the winter months. • Share Your Skills or Products: If you run a business, consider donating items, services, or a portion of your profits to local shelters, food banks, or support groups. • Support Local Organizations: Offer your time to a group that aligns with your values—whether it’s helping at an animal shelter, mentoring youth, or working with environmental initiatives. • Acts of Neighborly Kindness: Check in on neighbors, especially the elderly or those living alone, and offer assistance like shoveling snow or running errands. Celebrating community is about sharing the abundance we have, however small, to uplift others. Together, we can create warmth and connection during this sacred season. ✨ Blessed Yule! ✨
