Giving Tuesday — What You Should Know
Since it's inception 5 years ago, "Giving Tuesday" has exploded in popularity, encouraging a "global day of giving". Black Friday kicks off shopping season, Cyber Monday is for online sales...so to officially kick off the charitable donations season, Giving Tuesday is here!
My 3 favorite LOCAL charities:
Friends of The City of Buffalo Animal Shelter Community Services for the Developmentally Disabled WNY Heroes
Over 30% of online donations happen in December, and there are a TON of great charities out there. Unfortunately, there are a few that are straight up scams. So how do you know which is legit?
If you ever feel like something is a scam, or if you want to know how a charity spends its money, check out CharityWatch.org and CharityNavigator.org .
Happy Giving!!!
