Long Beach is always in a giving mood, and even more so during the holiday season. Each year, we hear inspiring tales of giving. Whether donating goods, funds or time, residents of Long Beach continue to step up and lend a hand.

But we also know that some would like to help, and maybe either just haven’t gotten around to it or don’t know how to make a difference. Conversely, some charities may have wonderful causes but need help to attracts volunteers. With this article, we’ll try to bring everyone together – and we need your help.

In the comments section below, leave a comment about a local charity organization or event that is doing something positive during this holiday season. Make sure you leave the contact information for the organization or event so readers can find out more information. We will do our best to fill in contact information if anything is missing.

The idea here is to give all that are interested in volunteering a place to come to pick from a list of local volunteering opportunities. Comment as many times as you like – there’s no limit!

So how about it, Long Beach? Which charitable organizations or events could use a hand?
