FYI

The Herald will run its annual Ways to Give list on Nov. 20. Ways to Give lets readers see which charitable groups need help during the holiday season.

The Herald needs the following information to compile the list: name of organization, services provided, hours, address, a phone number to be included in the listing, a phone number where a Herald reporter can reach the group and which items or services are needed.

To get on the list, charitable groups should respond by Nov. 1. Send responses to Herald assistant city editor Theresa Goffredo or e-mail her at tgoffredo@ heraldnet.com.
