A note from our Executive Director, Trudy Harris:
I wanted to take a moment to thank all of you who volunteer and support our communities. We truly treasure all of our nonprofits, volunteers and business partners and look forward to a wonderful holiday season! Team Giving has had a great year so far, including some exciting news last Friday from a grant partner. It is with great excitement we announce this challenge to strengthen our good work in the community.

GETTING INVOLVED WITH TEAM GIVING
VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITY SPOTLIGHT
Thanksgiving in Auburn
November 27 & 28
Every year, thousands of volunteers across the nation help provide warm, joyful meals to those in need on this special holiday. This year, you can help! Volunteers can help the day before Thanksgiving to prepare, or help in the kitchen on Thanksgiving Day.
Run the Parkway
November 10
Many volunteers are needed for this fun annual event along the American River Parkway. Lend a hand with registration, cheering on runners, celebrating with beer & food, and more! Proceeds benefit the Parkway for recreational and nature habitats all year round.
FEATURED VOLUNTEER PROJECT
This year we had the privilege to connect Five Star Restoration & Construction with the Sacramento Children's Home. Thank you for your incredible work and generosity!
Every year, Five Star Restoration & Construction completes an incredible project in our community. Team Giving works with many volunteer groups all year round, and each year, this group stands out to us. A locally-owned business that is like one big family, they take this opportunity each year to build their legacy: supporting those in need in our community while using their skills and teaching them to the next generation.

MORE ABOUT THE CHALLENGE FUND
A Southern Californian foundation has presented us with a unique opportunity to leverage a substantial grant for the coming year to strengthen our Northern California community. They have offered to issue a $150,000 grant to Team Giving for 2020, if we complete the challenge by raising $35,000 from the local Sacramento community by 12/1/2019. This is an amazing opportunity: for every dollar we raise, they allocate $3 dollars. It's a unique and wonderful opportunity and here's how you can help:
Businesses can help achieve this challenge by purchasing a Social Responsibility Program package or an event sponsorship by December 1st.
And friends, donations of any amount are welcome, visit teamgiving.org/donate to contribute.
