Background and Analysis:

Giving Tuesday is a global giving movement that has been built by individuals, families, organizations, businesses and communities in all 50 states and in countries around the world.  This year, Giving Tuesday falls on November 27.  Giving Tuesday is a way to harness the power citizens to transform how people think about, talk about, and participate in the giving season.  It is intended to inspire people to take collective action to improve their communities, give back in better, smarter ways to the charities and causes they believe in to help create a better world.  Giving Tuesday demonstrates how every act of generosity counts.
