A free and easy way to help your favorite charity

Mary Stachyra Lopez | Catholic Herald

In 2014, Catholic Herald staff supported ‘Joy to the Kids,’ a nonprofit in which actors dress up as fairy-tale characters and visit sick children in hospitals. Staff collected stickers, coloring books, notebooks and more.

With Thanksgiving and Christmas just around the corner, it’s
time for the Arlington Catholic Herald‘s annual
‘Nominate a Charity’ contest.

Each year, the Catholic Herald staff picks one charity
to “adopt,” supporting them not only with physical or
monetary needs, but also with a feature article in our
newspaper and a video posted on the website in December. This
year we’re giving readers the opportunity to participate and
share their blessings as well (we’ll let you know how after
the charity is chosen).

Do you know of a deserving charity? Tell us what they do and
why our staff should sponsor them during the Christmas
season. Nominate the charity by midnight Dec. 1 by emailing
[email protected]. Be sure to include your name and
contact information in case we have questions.

Afterward, don’t forget to encourage your friends to
participate, too. Raise awareness by tagging your friends and
your nominee on Facebook
and Twitter, using the
hashtag #HeraldAngels.

Thanks for your support of the Catholic Herald and
generosity during the holiday season.
