Black Friday and Small Business Saturday have come and gone, Cyber Monday is now in full swing and Giving Tuesday is just on the horizon.

The Tuesday after Thanksgiving, which falls this year on Nov. 29, 2022, marks a day that doesn’t resolve around consumerism, but rather focuses on giving back in one’s community.

Giving Tuesday organizers describe the event as a “movement that unleashes the power of radical generosity around the world.” The organizers behind Giving Tuesday note that the day is about all types of giving. Individuals who want to participate can donate money, food and/or clothing; start an advocacy campaign; help a neighbor; or commit an act of generosity.
