【Watch Nice Sister】

Giving Tuesday — the “global generosity movement” that encourages people to engage in some post-Black Friday charitable giving — has arrived,Watch Nice Sister and Mashable's rounded up some of this year’s biggest giveback campaigns. 

Started in 2012, Giving Tuesday falls on the Tuesday following Thanksgiving, well-past Black Friday deals, small business Saturday roundups, and Cyber Monday sales. Through collaborations with national businesses, nonprofits, and other organizations, the day will hopefully catalyze millions of dollars in charitable donations to organizations around the country and the world. The official Giving Tuesday campaign hosts donation opportunities in 80 countries, and last year’s contributions totalled $2.47 billionin just the first 24 hours, according to the organization.
