The fall season is traditionally one of the busiest and most lucrative times of year for non-profits to increase their charity fundraising dollars. The trees are looking bare, and Mother Nature has brought us some early snow already — telltale signs that the holiday season is rolling in once again. But before Santa’s sleigh departs the North Pole and we make our way into a New Year, we celebrate one of America’s favorite holidays, Thanksgiving.

A far cry from our time in school when the letter “F” brought on feelings of dread, Thanksgiving is a time to cherish the letter, focusing on the importance of friends, family, food, and for some of us, football. This year, we ask you to remember another “F” as well, fundraising. Day in and day out we help our charity partners with their efforts to raise money and awareness for great causes around the world. In a hope to inspire and fuel some charitable gestures on this day of giving, we ask that each end every person perform just one act of good faith. Whether you invite a lonesome friend over for Thanksgiving Dinner, offer some free time to a local soup kitchen, or simply donate a few dollars online, we simply ask that you help keep the spirit of giving alive. After all, isn’t that what Thanksgiving is really about?

We have a lot to be thankful for here at Autograph Store Charity Fundraising, and we’d like to take the time to specifically thank our dedicated friends and charity partners who continue to work tirelessly to make this world a better place. From all of us here at Autograph Store Charity Fundraising, we hope you have a safe and happy Thanksgiving surrounded by good food, great friends and a loving family. And don’t forget the newest “F” during this wonderful season of giving!
