Why November 28? Charities across North America have marked the Tuesday following “Black Friday”, the largest retail sales day, as a day designated to celebrating giving to charities.
We decided that we will use this Giving Tuesday, to thank all of you who give to us. And, also to share what we do with the community.
Come discover the joy!
