Nonprofits Gather For Yampa Valley Gives Day Honk-and-wave


Foundation: Yampa Valley Community Foundation

It's that time of year again: time for charitable giving.

Tuesday was Colorado Gives Day, a day that encourages Coloradans to "give where you live" by supporting local nonprofit organizations in the local community, the Craig Press reports.

Yampa Valley Gives was created through a partnership with the Yampa Valley Community Foundation, to highlight nonprofits in the Yampa Valley.

On Tuesday, Dec. 6, local nonprofits gathered for the Yampa Valley Gives Day honk-and-wave to get local supporters amped up for the annual day of giving.

Donations made on Tuesday are matched through an incentive fund with the Community First Foundation.

Moffat County United Way and the Humane Society of Moffat County spent part of the afternoon at the intersection of Yampa Avenue and Victory Way for the honk and wave to remind local residents to donate.
