As a couple, we are dedicated to giving back to our local and global community and we are excited to continue this process at our wedding. We have identified a few charities that are particularly important to us as a couple and would be honored to have guests contribute to our efforts to support these organizations! Ujamma Place: is a nonprofit in our neighborhood that works with Katie's clients on a daily basis to improve their future prospects in so many ways including mentorship, employment, education, housing, and parenting skills. More info at: http://www.ujamaaplace.org/ Give Directly: takes a radical approach to charity giving by prioritizing recipient preferences over those of donors or the charity itself. Cash is directly transferred to extremely low income households in developing countries to use on whatever the recipients need most. https://www.givedirectly.org/operating-model
