Review our posts to see all the charities we’ve helped so far.
We want to give back to our community. Help us make a difference!
Every two months we choose a local charity we believe genuinely helps those in need, or a charity that is close to the heart of one of our members. For the next two months we donate 50¢ every time a member checks-in on Facebook when they arrive at “SIN”, and this program does not cost them anything!
Our Check in For Charity for May/June, 2022 is Paltown.
Paltown is an online community to connect, engage, nurture, and educate those directly affected by Colon Cancer. It provides the tools patients and caregivers need to be active partners in their care. Paltown empowers patients and caregivers by creating disease-specific communities to address information needs and social isolation through training, technology, and developing purpose-driven community leadership.
Colon Cancer has directly affected our SIN Community:
Our Check in For Charity for March/April, 2022 is The Alzheimer’s Association.
Since its founding in 1980, The Alzheimer’s Association has been dedicated to working towards a world without Alzheimer’s and dementia. This nationwide non-profit organization focuses on accelerating global research while providing care and support to all affected.
Our Check in For Charity for January/February, 2022 is CLOVES Syndrome Community, which was established in 2009 by a mother of a child who was diagnosed with this rare condition after realizing there was no network for support.
What is CLOVES? CLOVES stands for Congenital, Lipomatous, Overgrowth, Vascular Malformations, Epidermal Nevi and Spinal/Skeletal Anomalies and/or Scoliosis. CLOVES is caused by a gene mutation and is extremely rare. There is no cure for CLOVES and as of right now, and there is very little treatment.
The Check in For Charity focus for the months of November and December will be for the Town of Berlin Holiday Assistance Program
Your check-ins will make a difference in the holidays of many people in our community so be sure to Check-in!
The past two years have been very challenging for so many families due to COVID and the hardships it has caused on our community. The Holiday Assistance Program assists local families, seniors, and other citizens in need.
