With the holiday giving season still fresh in everyone’s memories, City Dads Group proudly presents this short video recapping the great work our members in a dozen U.S. cities did this past Giving Tuesday with the help of our partner, Plum Organics.
Plum Organics, the nation’s leading organic baby food brand, donated more than 41,000 pouches of their tasty meals to help children in need through organizations 12 chapters selected. Our dads in those chapters pitched in to unpack, sort and resort those pouches for distribution, and performed other service work such as sorting clothes, stocking pantry shelves and spiffing up community facilities.
Our City Dads members shot video of their actions and San Francisco Dads Group organizer Mike Heenan compiled and edited together their work into the video.
Giving Tuesday, the Tuesday following Thanksgiving, is a global day of outreach dedicated to helping others. It’s meant to kick-off the holiday season by inspiring people to collaborate in improving their local communities. Since its 2012 inception, tens of thousands of organizations worldwide annually participate in the day.
Giving Tuesday 2017 marked the fourth consecutive year City Dads groups around the country have participated in this day of giving back through service. Plum Organics also served as our national sponsor in 2016.
DISCLOSURE: Plum Organics partnered with City Dads Group for the mentioned above through a donation of goods and financial compensation.
