Nonprofit organizations across the Kansas City area asked the public to open up their hearts and wallets on Giving Tuesday.
From the first winter weather advisory of the season to economic concerns, nonprofits say the need is greater than ever for food, shelter and personal products.
This holiday season, the goal is to save lives, and thats what well do with your support. We go where the need is,"
said Scott Poore, founder of On A Mission KC.
When the temperature drops below freezing, Poore immediately gets to work. For the last five years, he's worked with the nonprofit Kansas City Heroes on a donation drive. Lifesaving products received are given directly into the hands of people experiencing homelessness.
This winter is no different.
