ALLEGAN, MI (WHTC-AM/FM, Nov. 29, 2023) – It was the annual effort in support for and raising awareness of local, national and international non-profits on Tuesday.
For one agency that backs community efforts financially, Giving Tuesday centered on combating illiteracy. The Allegan County Community Foundation asked for donations to bolster the Allegan County Imagination Library. As Amanda Chappell of the Foundation explained, her group picked up the proverbial ball earlier this year in backing a monthly mailing of a book to children aged 1-5.
The Allegan Area ESA is handling the Dolly Parton Imagination Library distribution logistics, and Chappell added that a donation of $33.60 would fund such a monthly mailing for one child over a year’s time. An online link to more information is here.
