Today is GivingTuesday – a global day of giving. After the sales of Black Friday and Cyber Monday, GivingTuesday is a time to celebrate and encourage activities that support the work on non-profit organizations. Whether it's making a donation, volunteering your time or spreading the word, GivingTuesday is a movement for everyone who wants to give something back.
