We love philanthropy! Today’s Giving is this region’s only magazine focusing on unbiased, philanthropic stories.

We are more than just a pretty face (and cover). Each story details organizations, businesses, and people who are finding unique ways to solve today’s challenges.

Each story in Today’s Giving has a “call to action” for every reader. No matter your profession or passion, we provide ways for you to get involved and with take-a-ways to use in your life.

Loyal readers and supporters wanted! Our readers are engaged citizens and community leaders. They look to our content for advice, nonprofits to support, businesses to patronize, and others to join their network.

Pink is our favorite color. We actually have lots of favorite colors, but we support nonprofits including Susan G. Komen for the Cure, Wellspring for the World, Lewis & Clark Fort Mandan Foundation, Community Violence Intervention Center, Rape & Abuse Crisis Center, and many more.

In every issue experts lend their knowledge from various fields to help you plan your giving, fundraising, leadership, and more!

We are in print and online. There is something about the feel of a magazine in your hands, but you can also get our content on our website, www.todaysgiving.com
