The indulgence of Thanksgiving and the madness of Black Friday and Cyber Monday are behind us. Our bellies are a little fuller and our wallets a\u00a0little emptier, leaving us with a hangover of extravagance and immoderation.\u00a0Giving Tuesday<\/a>\u00a0is a global day dedicated to the idea of giving back. Work off that hangover by volunteering, donating, or just\u00a0being generous with\u00a0your personal gifts. We believe\u00a0that offering of yourself, your time, your money, and your spirit can be an important step on the path to true north.<\/p>\n

But generosity doesn’t have to stop after Giving Tuesday. If you’re moved to give back during the holidays, here are some organizations worth checking out.<\/p>\n
