GIVES Fair: A Celebration of Community, Generosity, and Impact

Every act of giving begins as a seed… small, hopeful and full of possibility. When you choose to give, you might never see where that seed lands or how it blossoms. But here’s the truth: your generosity is alive and growing, often in ways you can’t imagine. Meet “Ruben”, a 30-year-old single father of two girls ages ten and eight years old.
