The holiday season is coming up. Charity drives often take place in the fall to help provide food and sometimes heat or other goods to help people get through the winter. In this hour, we discuss charity drives taking place around the country. Do families in your community rely on charity drives to get by? What makes a charity drive effective? How can people find out about nearby charity drives, either to contribute or receive? And are there cultural perceptions of charity in our society that impact our ability to help each other? If you’re organizing an event on your reservation or in your village, we want to hear what you are collecting and why.
