"Giving Tuesday Spurred 113% Spike In Number Of Donations..."
How awesome is this?!? =)
As a follow-up to last week's Tithing Tuesday post, I wanted to give a shout out to all the wonderfully generous souls out there who have participated in the making of what will surely become a new holiday tradition: #GivingTuesday
According to an article The Chronicle of Philanthropy, the organization "Network for Good", an online processor of charitable gifts, reported the above headline, stating that the total number of donations made through their service site more than doubled, to 113 percent, on #GivingTuesday versus the Tuesday after Thanksgiving 2011, and was also above the amount collected on Monday, as well.
And Network for Good's success was a real indication of how charities and causes across the board fared from Tuesday's boost in 'giving consciousness' and exposure to causes, thanks to #GivingTuesday. And WHAT a wonderful way to begin this holiday season, isn't it?! =oD
That’s the Spirit!! …Let’s keep up the giving, sharing, and helping, and really let the meaning of the season live in each and every one of us this year!! =)
Happy Holidays!!
May your imagination light your way,
