What’s Up? Media’s Philanthropic Mission

brFor 18 years, What’s Up? Media has helped raise money for the many wonderful charitable organizations in our communities. Publisher Veronica Tovey notes, “In the past five years, we have been able to donate $111,000 in cash to 21 local organizations. We also give at least $100,000 in free advertising each year to local organizations who otherwise would not have been able to publicize their own fundraising events. My hope is that we continue to increase the amounts that we put back in to the communities for a long, long time!”

brTo publicize your 2016 Philanthropic Event in the Towne Social section  please contact Social & Style Editor, Becca Newell at bnewell@whatsupmag.com  You can also contact Becca to learn more about the What’s Up?
