THE SEASON OF GIVING Welcome to the season of all things festive and fun! This month is a time to give thanks to those near and far, and to also start your holiday shopping. That is why you’ll love all that’s on the pages of this month’s issue! From our annual gift guide themed “100 Gifts–All Local” starting on page 20 to our inaugural “Giving Tree” where we highlight area non-profit organizations that are in need of your donation this holiday season on page 27.

We know that many of our readers love to help those in need each season, but are not sure where to go to give. That is why the “Giving Tree” will come in handy! Please share it with your friends and family and encourage them to also give back– no donation is too small. This listing is also available online to make it easy for you to share in social media and beyond. Simply take a minute to visit www.glancer magazine.com. When you donate this season you will be helping many individuals in need.

Our “100 Gifts–All Local” annual gift guide will leave you smiling from ear to ear because these gift ideas are pretty amazing! Not only are they unique, but they can be found nearby, saving you lots of time. From theater tickets and annual park memberships, to gift baskets, jewelry and apparel– you will for sure find something for that hard-to-shop-for loved one on your list.

We truly hope you enjoy this issue! Enjoy the season and all that it represents. Happy Holidays to you and yours.
