Umbrella: Anti-Poverty Direct Aid groups
For the past six years, FTH has supported one “umbrella” cause: we invite participants to donate to their own local grassroots organization, while also suggesting a handful of exemplary organizations working in communities where the need is especially acute. This year, our umbrella category is organizations providing direct aid to community members, including food, housing assistance, and other basic needs. When looking for an org to support, we encourage you to think about specific populations in your community who may be especially at risk.
