GivingTuesday was created in 2012 as a simple idea: a day that encourages people to do good. GivingTuesday was born and incubated at the 92nd Street Y and its Belfer Center for Innovation & Social Impact in New York City. GivingTuesday is now an independent nonprofit and a global movement that inspires hundreds of millions of people to give, collaborate, and celebrate generosity.

Giving Tuesday is tomorrow December 1. When you consider donating to a nonprofit, please consider the Bishop Hill Heritage Association. The BHHA is a nonprofit dedicated to preserving the history and legacy of the Bishop Hill Colony through historical restoration, artifact preservation, workshops, exhibits, festivals, lectures, concerts, and other educational programming. Your contribution keeps all these activities alive. Donations can be made by phone (309 927-3899), by mail (BHHA, PO Box 92, Bishop Hill, IL 61419) or online (https://bishophillheritage.org/products-page/donation/donate/). Thank you for your support!
