Giving Day is a movement that inspires people to give back to their communities and support causes that matter to them. Celebrated each year, it brings together individuals, organizations, and businesses to make a positive impact through donations, volunteering, and acts of kindness.

This year, NLC Giving Day is all about supporting and strengthening our Trades programs. Skilled trades are the backbone of strong, thriving communities. From carpentry and esthetics to welding and electrical, these careers are essential to our region’s growth and vitality. When you invest in trades education, you’re also investing in the strength and sustainability of our communities. With your support, students can step into the workforce ready to meet local needs, drive economic development, and share their skills to benefit the region.

Your generosity on Giving Day makes sure trades students have access to the best training, tools, and resources. Whether it’s hands-on learning opportunities or updated equipment, every contribution helps create an environment where students can learn, grow, and build the confidence to succeed in their chosen field. Together, we can empower the next generation of skilled trades professionals who will keep our communities moving forward.
