Today is Giving Tuesday. It follows after Black Friday and Cyber Monday and celebrates the start of the giving season. It may not be as big as either of the consumer driven holidays, but it has in its own way grown every single year into a larger and larger movement of its own.
This time of year many people start to think more about how they can help others. I often talk about how much I love Christmas, but it's actually this spirit that makes me so fond of the season. Thinking of others and devoting more time to caring makes my heart swell with happiness.
So hopefully this holiday season you've already planned how to give back. If you're looking for something to give dollars toward check out CanadaHelps today and spend a little bit of time searching through all of the registered charities in Canada to see if there might be one that connects with your hopes and dreams for the world. Maybe there's an organization that gave something to you and this is a chance to pay it forward. Every dollar makes such a difference in having an impact and making sure the amazing people in these organizations know you care and believe in their work.
