Giving Tuesday was started in 2012 as a response to the commercialization and consumerism dominating the period between Thanksgiving and Christmas. Today, individuals and families from around the world will celebrate the real reason for the season: Giving.

 

 

Safer Foundation is participating in #GivingTuesday. We hope you will support our programs that provide training and employment opportunities for people with criminal records as well as implement policy and advocacy initiatives that help returning citizens overcome barriers to employment.

 

 

Your donation will assist our clients in their quest to defeat poverty and pursue a positive future. Your generosity can transform lives and make a difference in the lives of countless men and women. Please give what you can today and encourage your family and friends to join you.
 
P.S. - Don't forget to ask if your company has a matching gift program!  Your donation could go even further!

Help Keep the Reader Alive and Free Since '93!

 

"We're the River Cities' Reader, and we've kept the Quad Cities' only independently owned newspaper alive and free since 1993.

So please help the Reader keep going with your one-time, monthly, or annual support. With your financial support the Reader can continue providing uncensored, non-scripted, and independent journalism alongside the Quad Cities' area's most comprehensive cultural coverage." - Todd McGreevy, Publisher
