February marks two special days all about spreading love and kindness. Those days are Giving Hearts Day (February 11, 2021) and Valentine’s day (February 14, 2021).

Giving Hearts Day is a 24-hour event and the entire goal of it is to raise money for non-profit charity organizations. The day takes place on the second Thursday of the month. You can Participate in Giving Hearts Day by donating to several different organizations that are participating as well.

Some great places to donate are the NDAD (helping others help themselves), and  The YWCA (eliminating racism and empowering woman). Both of these organizations accept donations all year around.
