STATESBORO, Ga. - It seems the holiday season begins earlier every year, but the frenzy of shopping truly launches the day after Thanksgiving, commonly known as Black Friday. As more and more people began to turn to online shopping, Cyber Monday emerged, too. Although all this shopping is done in the name of giving gifts to loved ones, it sometimes feels like the goodwill of the holiday season fades into the background... In 2012, a few nonprofit professionals decided to do something about it.
Enter Giving Tuesday - a focused, global day of giving that provides an opportunity to give back in order to help others in need.
