2018 Charity Winner
As you may remember, in lieu of mailing Christmas cards for the past two years, I decided to make a donation to a local charity. 2017’s charity winners were the SPCA of Wake County and The Jimmy V Foundation. That year was a tie so I decided to donate to them both.
Now it is time to announce the 2018 winner but before I do, I would like to thank all of you for sending me your favorite local charities. There were so many awesome causes that I was excited to learn more about. Now for the 2018 winner…
Marteen was especially excited to help me with donating to the SPCA of Wake County. Keep reading to learn a little more about this great organization.
