The National Day of Giving, which takes place every year on the Tuesday after Thanksgiving, is also known as Giving Tuesday or Global Day of Giving. It follows three major shopping days: Black Friday, Small Business Saturday, and Cyber Monday. It was created to unleash the power of radical generosity by giving to those in need or local charities. Giving Tuesday is a global movement observed in most countries around the world. What a great holiday, and a great opportunity for those of us with more, to give to those in need. There are so many opportunities this year to help others who have been hit with floods, hurricanes, inflation, and rising costs. If you have been blessed this year, look for ways to participate in Giving Tuesday.
