GIVE BACK is our way of engaging the online community in support of worthy organizations in the Quincy, Illinois area. We feel it is important to support our local community. As a small part of how we GIVE BACK to the Quincy community, we would like to have your suggestions on what organizations we should support.
Each month, Hansen-Spear Funeral Home will award $100 to the charity or non-profit that receives the most votes in the GIVE BACK contest. We are asking for your help in supporting our community. We hope that this effort will aid the charities that receive these donations as well as bring about awareness of the needs in our community.
