   Jun 19, 2023

Summer 2023 is here! The first day of summer is Wednesday, June 21st. The first day of summer is also known as the summer solstice. The summer solstice will officially arrive in the Northern Hemisphere at exactly 10:58 am EST on the 21st. On the day of the solstice the Northern Hemisphere receives sunlight at the most direct angle. It is also the longest day of the year and the shortest night. CharityWatch wishes you and yours a festive, fun, and safe summer 2023!

It is important to remember that homelessness and food insecurity do not take a summer holiday. Summer is a great time to donate to your favorite CharityWatch Top-Rated Housing & Housing Equity charity or to a Hunger & Food Policy charity.
