Post Thanksgiving, post Black Friday… I’m pretty sure we all can agree we have a whole lot to be thankful for. This year I’ve started to teach my 6 year old the importance of charity and helping others in need, which inspired me to write this. If you feel like you have a million gifts to buy this year but still want to give back or donate in any way check out a few of the MANY companies that donate to charities, and no donation whether big or small goes unnoticed.
