#GivingTuesday
Every year on #GivingTuesday, our agencies take the time to Give Back to organizations that support the Greater Dayton community. Through item donation drives and on-site volunteer work, JewishDayton encourages the Jewish community to learn more about our community partners and Dayton’s vital social service resources. For #GivingTuesday 2018, JewishDayton is giving back again, this time with two different events on the same day as well as two donation drives starting November 1, with item collections being accepted at the Boonshoft CJCE located in Centerville.
