Ithaca City of Asylum joined fifty other local non-profit organizations at the Ithaca Alternative Gift Fair on December 7, 2013, at the First Presbyterian Church at Dewitt Park. During the fair, participants had the chance to donate a gift to a charity in honor of a loved one—the perfect gift for the person on your list who already had all the material goods he or she might want. When you made a donation to ICOA, you received a lovely Acorn Design holiday card with an insert explaining your gift to the recipient.
