What is #GivingTuesday? #GivingTuesday is a global movement to celebrate giving back, whether it is your time, your talents or your monetary donations.

We have a day for giving thanks on Thanksgiving, days for getting deals – Black Friday, Small Business Saturday and Cyber Monday.

On #GivingTuesday, we have an opportunity to give back.

Give of your time and talents by visiting a family member or neighbor. Run errands for someone that cannot. Volunteer!!! Send a card or make a call. Donate to your favorite not-for-profits.

Every act of generosity counts, and each means even more when we give together. #GivingTuesday includes people of all ethnicities, religions and backgrounds from around the world.

With your help, we will continue to give to, and celebrate our community, on #GivingTuesday and beyond, and continue our mission as well as expanding our outreach. Thanks for giving!!!
