Manchester Area Nonprofits To Support This Holiday Season

MANCHESTER, CT — If you’re like many of your Manchester neighbors, you may spend a good part of the holiday season with your credit card in hand buying gifts for family and friends. Coming up soon is a chance to give back to the local community.

Giving Tuesday, which in 2024 falls on Dec. 3, is a day dedicated to supporting nonprofit and community groups. Since 2012, nonprofits worldwide have used the Tuesday after Thanksgiving to galvanize fundraising, rally volunteers and add momentum to their causes.

Maintaining funding is a constant challenge for many nonprofits that fill gaps and meet other needs in and near Manchester.

Here is a sampling of nonprofit organizations to consider getting behind on Giving Tuesday:

• MARC Inc.
• Manchester Police Activities League
• Manchester Area Conference of Churches
• Community Health Resources
• Lutz Children's Museum
