For 9 years we have heard about Giving Tuesday, as it started in 2011. It is a global movement that unleashes the power of people and organizations to transform their communities and the world.  In the midst of the pandemic, nonprofits across the country are  struggling with fundraising. Even the American Cancer Society says it  will have to cut its funding for cancer research by 50%, which would  represent the organization's lowest investment this century.

We  have interviewed over 50 non-profits and social enterprises here at The  Talking Story Podcast that do what they do because they are passionate  about changing the WORLD. And they do that by making a difference in the  lives of others. How?

Number 1: Investing in relationship. Taking the time to get to know a person/community and their needs.

Number  2: Addressing those needs, a common factor that we have seen is thru  providing employment, but there are other ways like maintaining  and  building water wells in central Africa, building schools, and offering  horse- back riding lessons as a form of therapy and healing.
