To kick off year-end giving this year, we’re joining together with other non-profits in the Grand Rapids area for #GRgives as a way to celebrate #GivingTuesday.
But, you don’t have to wait til Tuesday to give! Invest in the lives of youth by supporting New City Neighbors:
- Give a financial gift: make a donation today! You can give a one time or on-going gift online, or send a check to New City Neighbors, 1226 Union Ave NE, Grand Rapids, MI 49505.
- Give your time! We have a goal of having 30 tutors for 30 students by next year. But we need your help to make it happen. Can you spend an hour a week helping a student with their homework? Visit our volunteer opportunities page to find out more. Or, if you know you’re interested, email Holly at hollyh@newcityneighbors.org right now!
