Hopefully you came out of Black Friday unharmed and didn't max out your credit cards on Cyber Monday. Today is a special day because it reminds us of the power of paying it forward, and ever better, it doesn't cost us a dime.

Today is "Giving Tuesday." Giving Tuesday is a movement to create a national day of giving to kick off the "giving season" following Thanksgiving, Black Friday and Cyber Monday. It celebrates and encourages charitable activities that support non-profit organizations.

In the same way that retail stores take part in Black Friday, we want the giving community to come together for Giving Tuesday.

There are lots of ways you can help.

These are just some of the many opportunities out there. Even more are detailed on the United Way's website.

 

If you can't volunteer today, don't sweat it! Schedule a time to help others when you're available. No deed is too small. No time is too short.

 

Over the almost four years I've been at 94.3 The Point, I've learned that our listeners are the kindest and most generous. Thank you for what you already do and and help you can lend this "Giving Tuesday."
