As we enter the holiday season, I'm delighted to announce that Bethesda Green has joined the #Giving Thursday movement. Taking place December 2, 2014 -- the Tuesday after Thanksgiving -- #Giving Tuesday creates a national moment dedicated to giving, a welcome counter-balance to the consumerism associated with Black Friday and Cyber Monday.
With that in mind, we seek your support.
Please make a donation today.

make a small monthly donation. Monthly donations are a great way to make a significant impact, for less than what you might spend at a coffee shop. All gifts made between now and December 2 will be counted toward #Giving Tuesday.
I know you'll be asked for donations by many, many worthwhile causes, and I ask that Bethesda Green be among those you choose to support.
In the few short months since I've come on board at Bethesda Green, I have to say I'm continually impressed and inspired by the commitment of this community. Everywhere I go, people tell me how much they appreciate what our small organization does. They also share their ideas for new programs and initiatives to make Bethesda a more livable and sustainable place. I'm excited about what we do and by all the possibilities and also keenly aware of the need for the financial wherewithal to make them a reality.
And that's where you come in. The truth is, we simply can't do what we do without the support of our community. Sure, that means involvement in and participation in our programs and events, but it also means providing the dollars that are needed to incubate new companies in the green business sector, educate the community about sustainable living practices, and initiate programs and services that reduce our collective impact on the environment.
In this season of giving thanks, we are grateful that you are part of our community.
Please make a donation today.
