Wednesday marks the 6th annual Roanoke Valley Gives Day.
The 24 hours of online giving is hosted by the Community Foundation, encouraging you to support local non-profits.
Many of the more than 140 participating organizations are struggling this year because of the pandemic.
“Roanoke Valley Gives has always been a great way for everybody to come together and be a part of the community. And this year, I think it’s more important than ever because we haven’t had those opportunities to come together and show our support to these non-profits and all the great work that they do,” said Kaitlyn Van Buskirk, grants associate for the Community Foundation Serving Western Virginia.
