“Sometimes when we are generous in small, barely detectable ways, it can change someone else’s life forever.” ― Margaret Cho
Giving Tuesday, a response to the consumerism that surrounds the holiday season, has been celebrated since 2012. Founded as a way to give back to one’s community, both local and global, the Tuesday following “Black Friday” and “Cyber Monday” is a time of charitable giving that embodies the true spirit of the holidays. This week we explore the history behind Giving Tuesday and the many ways that giving positively affects others as well as ourselves.
