#GivingTuesday has harnessed the power of social media in an effort to make change happen in communities all over the world. The mission of #GivingTuesday is simply to celebrate and encourage giving, specifically on December 1st. The movement hope that when individuals, corporations, and non-profit organizations come together on one day each year to do small acts of kindness for others, a unified, diverse group of good-doers is created. From government agencies to small businesses, a variety of people are joining in the spread of kindness. This year alone, #GivingTuesday had participants from 71 countries, and $116.7 million dollars raised. Contribute to the change by liking their Facebook page or going to #GivingTuesday’s website.
