While the month of November is filled with thoughts of gratitude (Hello, Thanksgiving!), it’s also a reminder to remember those who may be less fortunate. There are 2 days in November specifically dedicated to spreading kindness and generosity.

World Kindness Day: November 13th
World Kindness Day, celebrated on November 13th, serves as a global reminder of the importance of being compassionate and considerate toward one another. It’s a day to promote goodwill and create a kinder world. As an organization dedicated to the well-being of our communities, we believe that kindness starts at home.

Giving Tuesday: November 28th
Following the festivities of Thanksgiving, Giving Tuesday, which falls on the Tuesday after Thanksgiving, offers an opportunity to give back. It’s a day when individuals and organizations come together to support charitable causes. For our not-for- profit company, Giving Tuesday is a chance to amplify our mission and inspire our members to do the same.

So why do these days matter?
Communities are the backbone of society. They are where we live, work, and grow. By supporting our communities, we foster a sense of belonging and unity. Our not-for-profit company is committed to making a difference, and we encourage our members to do the same.

How can you make a difference?
**Donate:** Whether it’s monetary contributions or in-kind donations, every bit counts. Even small donations can make a significant impact on local charities and initiatives.
**Volunteer:** Giving your time and skills can be just as valuable as financial contributions. Many organizations welcome volunteers to help with various projects and activities.
**Spread the Word:** Use your voice and influence to raise awareness about the causes that matter to you. Share stories, create social media campaigns, and inspire others to join the giving movement.
