#GivingTuesday #MakeEveryTuesdayGivingTuesday

      Many families who rent St. Ambrose homes struggle to cover their day-to-day necessities. Your gifts to Adopt A Family help St. Ambrose step in to avert personal tragedies.

       Through the Adopt A Family program, the family received a Thanksgiving basket, and at Christmas there were gifts for the children.  Each year Adopt A Family provides funds to help struggling families like hers close gaps to feed their families or pay their utility bills. The fund could help more families - especially if Rental Services knew in advance how much money could be spent.  

You can make sure more St. Ambrose families receive help this year with your gift through #GivingTuesday - especially if you commit to a recurring gift.

         St. Ambrose is joining  nonprofit organizations around the world on December 2 in this annual campaign to celebrate and encourage more giving.  The concept of #GivingTuesday is simple:  The Friday and the Monday after Thanksgiving (Black Friday and Cyber Monday) are days devoted to  getting deals. GivingTuesday celebrates the value of  giving back.

Here's how you can help:

• Donate on our website on December 2  www.stambros.org 

       To help us be sure there are ample funds for emergencies year-round, please consider making a recurring monthly gift. Just choose an amount to give each month, and it can be deducted automatically from your checking account or credit card. Don't worry - you can tell us to stop at any time (but of course we hope you won't!).

             Your generosity makes a big difference in some terribly difficult lives. Please help in any way you can!
