Home is where the heart is

November 25, 2009

NCGives' executive director Donna Chavis penned the following article earlier this year, when the Philanthropy Journal launched the Giving and Community section of its website. On this eve of a holiday when we celebrate the blessings in our lives, we hope you will be inspired to celebrate the giving that makes these blessings reality - on Thanksgiving, and all year round.

Happy Thanksgiving from NCGives!
