Share Your Holidays closing in on $30,000 in donations

WAUSAU, Wis. (WSAW) - The 18th Annual Share Your Holidays is nearing the halflway point of it’s 2020 effort. As of December 9, you’ve generously contributed about $29,000

This year we’re within striking distance of surpassing the $1 million cumulative donation mark. Since its inception, we’ve raised more $812,000. Experts say every dollar donated to a food pantry can buy three or even four meals.

Thanks to some local foundations and one family, we have $70,000 in matching dollars. That means every dollar you give is doubled. That’s possible because of grants from The BA and Esther Greenheck Foundation, the MacDonald Foundation, the Miller-Halverson Family, the Dudley Foundation and IncredibleBank.

Your monetary donations will be split between The Neighbors’ Place and Salvation Army in Wausau.

As you can imagine, the COVID-19 is causing this year’s campaign to look a little different. We will not be collecting any food. You can still take nonperishables directly to any food bank.

You can make monetary donations to SYH online through IncredibleBank. CLICK HERE to donate online. Or drop off donations in person or via the drive-thru at any IncredibleBank location in the Wausau area.

You can also send them to: 1114 Grand Ave. Wausau, WI 54403

Share Your Holidays ends Dec. 30.
