We've spent the holiday weekend and Cyber Monday, shopping excessively. Now it's time to give back extravagantly. At least that is what the organizers of Giving Tuesday hope we'll do. Giving Tuesday is today - November 27.

During Giving Tuesday, charitable organizations host volunteering, social media and online giving drives. GPB is taking part in this and we hope you do to. By giving to us, we can continue to give back to you by delivering the best television and radio programs, online content and multimedia resources for the classroom. This is of course the tip of the iceberg of what we deliver. And we love to do it. We hope you'll help us do it too and continue to be a vital part of the community in 2013. Here's how to give back.
