Pat Parris spearheads "The Giving Project – Doing Well, by Doing Good" in partnership with the Community Foundation for Southern Arizona. The first week of each month Pat presents a new nonprofit organization that is making a positive impact in our community and asks you to consider making a donation. Even $5 or $10 will make a difference for those in need.
This October, the KGUN 9 Giving Project looks at SAAVI Services for the Blind, a nonprofit that provides real-world training for the visually impaired.
You can donate to SAAVI Services for the Blind directly through its website.
Thank you to our generous viewers for supporting our September Giving Project with the If You Give a Child a Book campaign. An estimated $9,882 was raised over the course of the month. Your donation helped provide books for children at Nash Elementary School.
