In our annual The Triangle Gives special section, The News & Observer shines a light on some of the many nonprofits in the Triangle who are working to make life better for those in our community.

We realize that the holidays often bring out the giving spirit, but nonprofits need support all year long. Please use these articles as an introduction to some charities you may not have heard of and please use our online database at nando.com/trianglegives to see what other groups might need your time, skills or money.
