Giving Tuesday is an annual global movement of generosity that occurs on the first Tuesday after Thanksgiving. It encourages people to give back to their communities through donations, volunteering, acts of kindness, or sharing with those in need. As a small, grass-roots nonprofit organization, we rely on our community to support our work to protect our local waterways.
