Welcome to Giving Tuesday!
I don’t need to tell you that 2020 has been a rough year, and I also don’t need to tell you that there are thousands of worthy charities out there who need your support. You could argue that on the 2020 triage scale of things we need to be doing as a nation, a new long distance trail in the Great Plains falls a little short – maybe it’s something that we can “get to a little later.”
Three Things:
One – You’re right, and by all means, support that incredibly important charity that’s doing the hard, necessary things we need to do right now. Absolutely.
Two – You’re right, but maybe Great Plains Trail Alliance is part of Amazon Smile? Yes, we are! You can give to GPTA by simply shopping on Amazon. Here’s how:
Desktop or Laptop: 1) Be sure to shop from smile.amazon.com 2) Choose Great Plains Trail Alliance as your charity. 3) Shop as normal.
Mobile Phone: 1) Use the latest version of the Amazon app. 2) In settings, tap AmazonSmile and follow the prompts – choose Great Plains Trail Alliance as your charity. 3) Shop as normal.
Three – You’re right, but maybe, even in the midst of extraordinary times, we can, like Walt Whitman, “contain multitudes,” and as an act of pure optimism, reach beyond the immediate to support what the future can be once we’ve returned to “normal.” If that’s true for you, head to our website now and make a donation of any amount. We are forever grateful! https://www.greatplainstrail.org/
Stay Healthy!
