Make It Count – “Giving Tuesday” Encourages Generosity Toward Others

You shopped 'til you dropped on Black Friday and Cyber Monday. Now let's do some good. Here's info about #GivingTuesday 

Today is "Giving Tuesday," which is a 24-hour online campaign to encourage people to donate to charities, volunteer, and support causes that help others.

Giving Tuesday got started three years ago with the thought that after you indulged on perhaps Black Friday or Cyber Monday you might want to give back! Some ideas - you can give blood, give your time to an organization today or my favorite - give away clothing you're not using!

This year, there's even a campaign encouraging organ donation. By the way, last year #GivingTuesday raised about 45-million dollars and involved more than 15-thousand nonprofits. More than 30-thousand nonprofits are signed up this year. 

So please take a moment to go to GIVING TUESDAY.org to find out how and who you can help today! And use #GivingTuesday on social media to promote today too.
