2019 Giving Week Recap
When you receive thousands of inspiring stories about how Dune has helped our customers keep their most cherished memories with them all year round, it’s easy to say we’re doing a lot of good. However, we’ve also been lucky enough to partner with some special charities doing a tremendous amount of work to make sure that those experiences last a lifetime and since day one, Dune has always insisted that we give them the support they need.
We love our friends at the Association to Preserve Cape Cod, the Surfrider Foundation, Joslin Diabetes and have been able to use the growth we’ve experienced in 8 years to benefit them in some wonderful ways. With this as our foundation, we were SO excited to celebrate our first ever Giving Week in March of 2019.
This year we featured 5 of our favorite charities who are tackling some of the most important issues that face our world both here in our backyard and globally. We’re so excited to share a bit more about those organizations and the amount raised through our 2019 Giving Week.
