Each year, we ask six ELAM employees and six of our clients to nominate a charity that is close to their hearts. This collaborative process helps us ensure that the charities we support reflect the diverse causes that resonate with the people we work with. After all, every charity we contribute to holds significant meaning for someone, whether due to personal experience or a deep-seated passion for a particular cause.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Over the course of the 12 Days of Giving, we reveal one charity per day that will receive a donation from ELAM. We then ask our followers to donate what they can by providing the link to the charities. The charities we&#8217;ve supported in previous years reflect the wide array of issues that need attention.
