Downers Grove Businesses Make #GivingTuesday Last All Month
Several businesses are participating in Giving Tuesdays in December in Downtown Downers Grove.

Like Black Friday or Cyber Monday, #GivingTuesday is a recent holiday season trend, but instead of Internet shopping or waiting in line for good deals, Giving Tuesday reminds shoppers that it’s better to give than to receive.
Downers Grove businesses are getting in on the philanthropy, according to Downtown Downers Grove Management. Tuesdays in December in Downers Grove will be full of ways to help others while checking items off your holiday list.
