We have a day for giving thanks. We have two for getting deals. Now, you can kick off your holiday season by doing something different - giving back. The Tuesday after Thanksgiving, now known as #GiveLocalTuesday, is part of a nationwide movement to add meaning to the holidays. Who knows - it might become the best part of the season.
But wait, there's more! Give Local Tuesday is just the warm up and offers you the opportunity to test your online social media and marketing skills! Don't forget to mark your calendars for the BIG Day of Giving - A 24 hour online giving challenge onMay 6, 2014. This day will be a true celebration of the work being done by nonprofits and a day where donations will go even further with local and national matching dollars!
If you haven't signed up for a BIG Day of Giving orientation, there are just a few more opportunities to attend. Don't miss your chance, register now!
