The Tuesday after Thanksgiving is always "Giving Tuesday", a day to support your favorite charity, and trust me, there are quite a few to choose from! If you don't feel motivated to donate for yourself, how about someone on your holiday gift list?

People who have everything they want/need, often enjoy the gift of someone making a donation in their name to their favorite non-profit organization or worthy cause. If you are stumped for ideas, I have a few for you, located here in Otsego County:
