Giving Tuesday

So Thanksgiving is over, cyber Monday is done and today is known as Giving Tuesday.
Did you know this? I just had recently discovered that this is the biggest day people donate to charities during the year.
Why today? What makes this day different from any other day?
According to the website http://www.givingtuesday.com

"GivingTuesday kicks off the charitable season, when many focus on their holiday and end-of-year giving. Since its inaugural year in 2012, #GivingTuesday has become a movement that celebrates and supports giving and philanthropy with events throughout the year and a growing catalog of resources".
Donating comes in many forms.
Cash, check, clothing and time.
What is important to remember is that today isn't just about donating to a favorite charity, but donating time to your loved ones and spending quality time with them.

I'm not going to make this long. I just wanted to say, "Give today and give tomorrow because one day you may need the same in return.
