Steamboat Springs — In anticipation of Colorado Gives Day on Dec. 8, Yampa Valley Gives is celebrating the many ways people give to the Yampa Valley throughout the year. The group is asking people to share photos and explain how they give back for a chance to win $500 for a favorite nonprofit that is participating in this year's Colorado Gives Day. Use hashtag #igiveyv on Twitter or Instagram to enter.

The contest will run through Dec. 6. The winning photo will be selected at the Gives Day Party on Dec. 8 at High Five. By entering the contest, participants agree to allow YVG to use photo entries for promotional purposes.
