Since 2012, following Black Friday and Cyber Monday, #GivingTuesday has inspired people to give back this charitable season. Fueled by the power of social media and collaboration – #GivingTuesday connects diverse groups of individuals, communities and organizations around the world for one common purpose: to celebrate and encourage giving.
Wheather you are buying a colleague coffee or pledging to match a donation, this day is all about giving in any way you can.
