During the past month the Reno Gazette-Journal asked businesses in Northern Nevada to send in information about how they donate time, money and resources back to their communities. Below is a list of those who responded along with some of their charitable works. Because of the large number of responses received, space doesn't permit us to include all the activities submitted.

The following list is an overall view of the charitable donations made in 2006 by local companies and corporations with offices in Northern Nevada.

Charitable giving included large and small financial donations, from several thousand dollars to a few dollars.

Toys, non-perishable products, advertising and food, among many other items, also were among the charitable giving in which companies took part.

Several companies gave their time to those in need by allowing employees to volunteer during work hours, by offering free services to non-profits and by recognizing employees who volunteer in their personal time.
