It’s a busy time of year with many making decisions about where to donate before the end of the year.  Donations are needed especially this year as the government has cut funding to many organizations that it has supported in the past.  Some places will not survive without the public’s help.

It is also the deadline for paying the first instalment of your property taxes on December 10.  There are many distractions with the holidays but this is one that shouldn’t be forgotten.
