The 9/11 Memorial Museum is joining with organizations around the world on Dec. 2 for #GivingTuesday, a global day devoted to giving back to your community.

The #GivingTuesday website states that the day enables charities, families, businesses, community centers and students to "come together for one common purpose: to celebrate generosity and to give."

Find a way to bring together your family, community, company or organization, develop an action to give back and then share your efforts on social media using the #GivingTuesday hashtag.

The museum receives funding only through donor and visitor support. Join us today in giving back. Click here to donate to the 9/11 Memorial Museum.
