Black Friday, Cyber Monday, Giving Tuesday

American culture. Love it or hate it, it's a thing. Across the USA we celebrated Thanksgiving last week with friends, family and loved ones. Often times we connect with people we haven't seen for a while and hopefully let stresses and conflicts lie dormant. 

Then the madness begins. Even before the turkey is out of the oven, stores are screaming for sales. With the holidays fast approaching, it has become an American tradition to grab deals on things you need and want for a bargain. Some love the rush of the sales, some detest it. And each year it keeps growing. These days make me think of the guests around the holiday dinner table. First, Black Friday is your loud, outrageous, energetic aunt. Cyber Monday your geeky cousin that knows all about the latest and greatest gadgets out this year. And then there's us. We are Giving Tuesday, your globally minded sister, getting out there to change the world. She's got a heart of gold, and pennies in her pocket. Would you like to see a couple of pictures from the last trip to Belize? 

This morning we were reminded by a dear friend that sometimes our work as a grassroots small business has a quiet voice. 

He wrote,

"I've been getting emails all day from big dumb nonprofits who do things I don't care about (mostly climbing-related), and it got me thinking about the most beautiful and inspiring women I know who are doing the coolest things without asking for anyone's recognition of their amazing work.

Can you point me in the direction of a donation page?"

Wow, we are blushing. And the answer is YES! 

Global Service Partnerships has a foundation that allows supporters to put their money where their heart is. 
Donations are gladly accepted on the Our Foundation page of the website. You can find it under the "Get Involved" tab.

We are truly grateful for our supporters and friends. We aren't always the loudest about our work, but we aren't afraid to ask when prompted. Like mom always used to say, "If you don't ask, you'll never know." I'm pretty sure I heard that around the dinner table.

Donations gladly accepted any day of the week, 

including Tuesdays.
