We want to thank all our partners, clients and readers for your continued support. We are proud to see how San Diegans have stepped up and helped other San Diegans with countless acts of generosity and kindness. We are proud to have stood by you, been to events all over the County and kept our doors open, our team active and involved, and magazines printed and distributed. We are proud to be your news source for all things Giving Back and to have been able to share these stories and moments of social good. We are proud to see that while we may have physically distanced, we never socially distanced and we kept strong, together and unified.
Happy Holidays,
The Entire Giving Back Magazine Team
