#GivingTuesday: Even Small Amounts Add Up To A Big Difference!



 
#GivingTuesday was created in 2012 by the 92nd Street Y and the United Nations Foundation as a day of giving back.  It is celebrated the Tuesday after Thanksgiving, following two days of shopping deals.  More than 10,000 organizations have participated in this celebration of giving.  On December 2, we hope that you will support Marrakech’s #GivingTuesday campaign.

Small Donations Make a Big Difference

Even a small donation makes a difference.  $10 pays for one of our staff trainings.  $25 buys a week’s worth of coffee at our Taking Initiative Center (TIC).  $40 sends one of our consumers on a summer trip to Camp Harkness.

 
Every time you share a story about Marrakech on Facebook, grab a cup of coffee at our Village Café  https://www.facebook.com/#!/villagecafenh or recommend our services to someone in need, you support our mission.  And you become part of the Marrakech experience. 

 
In the coming weeks, our employees, consumers, and community partners will share their stories of the Marrakech experience in our Facebook page and blog.  On December 2, #GivingTuesday, we hope that you will join in with their voices.  Send us a photo of yourself holding a sign saying “I Am Marrakech.”  Share our stories with your friends and family.  Make a donation, in whatever amount feels comfortable to you, in support of our programs and services.

Thank you for making a difference in the lives of so many people.
