When it comes to giving back, New England shines as a beacon of generosity, consistently ranking among the most charitable regions in the nation. The New England Gives Philanthropy Guide 2024, a special section of The Boston Globe, continues to celebrate and amplify this spirit of giving. It’s meant to connect readers with meaningful, year-round opportunities to make a difference.

As the holidays approach, New Englanders are invited to embrace their community’s legacy of compassion. From supporting local nonprofits to spreading kindness in everyday moments, every action counts toward building a brighter, more connected world. Let’s keep the tradition alive and create even greater impact this year, one generous gesture at a time.
