#GivingTuesday Is Almost Here – Are You Ready?

Giving Tuesday BabyHere’s a great idea for the beginning of Advent: #GivingTuesday!

What is #GivingTuesday?

Black Friday. Cyber Monday. #GivingTuesday!

We have a day for giving thanks. We have two for getting deals. Now, we have #GivingTuesday, a global day dedicated to giving back.

On Tuesday, December 2, 2014, charities, families, businesses, community centers, and students around the world will come together for one common purpose: to celebrate generosity and to give.

It’s a simple idea. Just find a way for your family, your community, your company or your organization to come together to give something more. Then tell everyone you can about how you are giving. Join us and be a part of a global celebration of a new tradition of generosity.

If you’re looking for places to give on #GivingTuesday, here are some of my favorite organizations to support:

  • Catholic Relief Services – “the official international humanitarian agency of the Catholic community in the United States.”
  • Catholic Charities USA – “Working to reduce poverty in America.”
  • CNEWA – “a papal agency for humanitarian and pastoral support”
