Giving Tuesday: Back Philly news and children's literacy

The big picture: More than 36 million Americans donated a record $3.6 billion for causes near and dear to their hearts in 2024, per the organization GivingTuesday.

💭 Isaac's thought bubble: I'm not just giving advice here. Luckily, I work for a news organization that understands the value of hyperlocal reporting.

• So we hope you'll join us in spreading a little bit of love around these Philly orgs that share in our journalistic mission:
• The Lenfest Institute for Journalism
• Children's Literacy Initiative — one of our favorite causes.
• Resolve Philly

The bottom line: Generosity can alter your future — just ask Scrooge.

📬 Our choice was kinda obvious, because, duh, we're journalists. But we would love to hear from our readers: What orgs did you support and why?
