In 2012, I wrote my first post on #GivingTuesday. Then, it seemed like a great idea, although it was a tad gimmicky.

Whether a donation of time, pro bono services or money, #GivingTuesday reflects the Case Foundation's long-held belief in the importance of collective action and of making giving a part of every individual’s daily life.

You've probably already started to save your coins for Black Friday and, if you're ambitious, you'll be out and about spending them before you've even digested your turkey dinner. Whatever you do, save a few for #givingtuesday.

If buyers' remorse now has you poised to do something good, I ask you to consider #GivingTuesday.
