Donate Clothing in
Giving Tuesday is celebrated after Cyber Monday. It is a movement to transform communities through supporting organizations that make a difference!
1) Grandma’s Love – I’ve written about Theresa and her organization, Grandma’s Love before -> here. Grandma’s Love provides children in our area a bags of food for the weekend. This is a way to make a difference right here in Bay Ridge. Grandma’s Love also makes sure that children have the necessary things – school bags, supplies, books to read, warm clothes, etc. (Facebook is matching the donation here)
2) Reaching Out Food Pantry – the food pantry feeds a lot of people right outside of our area. Food pantries seem to be maxxed out now.They also give holiday parties to families who need a little Christmas.
What if you can’t give $$ now – Volunteer on 12/14 & 12/21 to assist with their annual holiday toy drive & which gives some Christmas joy to 800+ children in need. Sign up here

3) Bay Ridge Cares – An organization that comes to neighbors’ needs when, at times, there is no one else. Recently, they spend hours getting Thanksgiving Dinners t0 the elderly and homebound. Last year, they helped out a veteran in need. They also setup the acct so Facebook will match what you give – see here
4) Sean Casey Animal Rescue – great organization that finds homes for cats and dogs. What if you don’t have money to give? Bring them your newspapers – they need them for cages and yesterday they made a call for them on Facebook.
If you don’t have money right now, go donate clothes you don’t need! Brooklyn Dance Center at 9110 – 5th Avenue is collecting used clothes, accessories, bags, belts and shoes. Everyone has things they don’t need – bring it to the dance school.
Hugs,
