March 22 the day to help deserving organizations

Editor,

If the people of Utah ever wanted to make a difference, March 22 is the day to do it! Love UT Give UT is hosting a fundraising event to shame other fundraising events! It is the perfect opportunity for any “local” to give back to one or all the non-profit organizations that enrich our lives and make Utah a great place to live and work.  All your favorite 501(c)3 organizations are online to receive your donations and on March 22 and you can make that difference and make your voice heard!

I’ve worked for the Ogden Symphony Ballet Association for thirteen years. I am a little biased, but I would still say that if you don’t give to us, give to any of the deserving organizations in our state. Each of these worthy organizations could use a hand-up in this economy. It is an opportunity for us all to continue in the wonderful lifestyles to which we have become accustomed.  We are surrounded by wonderful arts and cultural opportunities, sporting events, opportunities for education, and the greatest mountains and snow on Earth.

It wouldn’t hurt to show your appreciation by taking a minute on March 22 to give a little back.

Lara Deppe
