Thanksgiving is about more than just gathering around a table with loved ones (although, that part is pretty great). To us, it’s also about taking a moment to look around, take a deep breath, and appreciate all that we have. We truly are lucky, blessed, thankful and grateful.
Today is Giving Tuesday. Transforming the world through radical generosity, internationally, nationally or locally, Giving Tuesday has quickly become one of the most notable days of the holiday season. For those who have been following our journey, you know that Revel Real Estate commits 1% of company profits to non profits in our community, supporting the places we live, work and play. Since our founding less than two years ago, we've
donated $70,000 to worthy organizations doing incredible work here in our Valley.
If you are looking for an organization to donate to on this Giving Tuesday, or before the end of the year, read on. This month's issue of The Revel Roundup is dedicated to highlighting the organizations we've supported in our journey thus far, in hopes that you might consider supporting them yourself.
