The Season of Giving

Now that Halloween has passed, the season of giving is right around the corner! Giving Tuesday is a global movement that originally started in 2012 as a way to normalize and encourage the act of “doing good”. Today, this movement has brought together millions of people across the globe through acts of kindness, generosity, and community events. Giving Tuesday is celebrated on November 29th, and there are so many ways to get involved. Celebrating Giving Tuesday can look like buying your friend a cup of coffee, volunteering for a local organization, or passing along some kind words to a stranger.
