Many of us feel isolated, and even more of us actually are.  #GivingTuesdayNOW is a great time to reach out to someone who may need a cup of sugar, someone to go to the pharmacy, or even just a friendly ear.  The effects of isolation and loneliness can have severe negative impacts on health, especially in seniors.  One study found that lonely seniors have a 59% risk of higher physical and mental health decline, and a 45% greater risk of death.

Reconnect or check in on a loved one today, and make your positive contribution for #GivingTuesdayNOW!

ATTENTION NUTMEG SUPPORTERS:

Moments ago, a very generous anonymous donor offered to match donations made today, up to the amount of $5000, in honor of #GivingTuesdayNOW!

 

What does that mean?

Your $50 gift becomes $100. 

Your $100 gift becomes $200. 

 

The assistance your gift provides to local pets and families?

Unprecedented.
