CYP CLUB Embraces the Spirit of the Season
The holidays are quickly approaching ... and with them comes food, gifts, parties and more.

Of course, this time of year isn't so festive for everyone. Many folks in Central Ohio are out of work, trying to make ends meet and can't get into the "holly jolly" spirit so easily.

But you can help change that with three upcoming philanthropic activities with your CYP CLUB friends.

Charity Spotlight: The Big Give at The Columbus Foundation
The Big Give is a 24-hour giving event for the community to support the nonprofits they care about in central Ohio. The Columbus Foundation and its donors will provide a record $1 million match for The Big Give, making it the biggest one day of giving ever in central Ohio. By working together, our community can create a historic day of giving that can give hundreds of nonprofits a much needed economic boost

The Big Give will also help a wide range of organizations that positively impact our culture and community, including the arts, education, health, human services, conservation, and animal welfare. There is an unprecedented demand for nonprofit programs and services—our diligent nonprofits deserve our support.

We recently spoke with Susan Halpern, Executive Director of the CIFVF, for insight into the longest-running film festival in the United States.
