THE
OF GIVING
S
ure, gift giving can be materialistic, but there’s a reason people have
been doing it since time immemorial. It shows care and love and
deepens our bonds (or even obligations) to one another. We know
you’re probably going to do some shopping on Amazon.com, but
with our annual gift guide, we’d like to also remind you to buy local
and support this community.
Check out Downtown Eugene Merchants’ Small Business
Saturday on Nov. 25 or the Springfield Chamber of Commerce’s event in
Springfield that same day and see what small businesses have to offer. Drop by
the Holiday Market or wander into a local store you’ve never checked out before.
Make it not about the shopping but about the support and giving. And if material
items aren’t your thing, then we hope you will find a nonprofit to give to in our
upcoming Give Guide in December. — Camilla Mortensen
