What is Giving Tuesday?
You are bound to see the phrase “Giving Tuesday” pop up in
your social media feed. Giving Tuesday is on November 28, 2017. Giving Tuesday
is a 24-hour fundraising challenge typically held annually on the first Tuesday
following Thanksgiving. It is part of the four-day blitz of Thanksgiving, Black
Friday, Cyber Monday, and Giving Tuesday.
I have included a link to a great article giving you more
details.
Check and see if your favorite charitable organization is
participating. And, even if they are not, consider donating.
Note that some of your favorite companies, stores, sports
teams, and celebrities participate in Giving Tuesday. In addition, an bonus worth looking into, is
that employers often will match your donations! Do a little research and
support your favorite cause!
