I recently read about a new movement called #GivingTuesday, where you can learn more about it at http://www.givingtuesday.org

It's a great cause, and the idea is simple: we have 2 days of deals (black friday & cyber monday), but only one day for giving.  

Some of you may know that help out for a non-profit called Givology, it's a 100% volunteer-run company that connects donors to students and projects in developing countries.  

Huffington Post is a sponsor and has created a new section specifically for this movement.  I plan to write a post about "How Personal Finance Bloggers are Making an Impact on #GivingTuesday"

If you'd like to get involved, please email me directly at kevin.yu@springcoin.com

 

*P.S.  This has nothing to do with SpringCoin, and I am not making any monetary gains from this.  I volunteer for Givology on my free time and truly believe in their cause.  We are giving bloggers $25 to donate to a project/student on Givology, as well as another $25 to give to their readers so they can donate to a project/student as well.*

Sounds like a great cause. Buying things and getting gifts is nice, but giving and helping others is a lot more rewarding!
