Giving Tuesday

Slava Isusu Christu! Slava na viki!

Glory to Jesus Christ! Glory forever!

We’ve all heard of Black Friday and Cyber Monday—days when shopping is at a frenzy, but have you heard of Giving TuesdayThe Tuesday after Thanksgiving has been designated as a national day of giving when people support non-profits. It’s a perfect way to show gratitude for the difference non-profits make every day throughout the year.

There is a lot of evidence that people experience altruistic behavior as pleasurable, and that we are “hard-wired for giving.” In the last 20 years neuroscientists have been able to demonstrate this time and again by putting people in MRI machines and watching what happens in their brains when they behave generously. And it really feels good—neurologically; it is similar to ingesting an addictive drug or hearing that you are holding a winning lottery ticket. So why deprive yourself of such a positive experience? 😉
