As Alabamians celebrate the giving season, many are considering donating to charitable organization of their choice. Since 2012, the first Tuesday after Thanksgiving has been recognized as ‘Giving Tuesday.’ The day has evolved into a movement to promote charitable donations during the holidays which has raised over $1 billion for charities around the world. This year, Giving Tuesday will be celebrated on Tuesday, November 28. Unfortunately, the Office of the Attorney General regularly sees the generosity of individuals around the state being taken advantage of by people who seek opportunities to scam others out of money. Attorney General Steve Marshall is urging Alabamians to be diligent when considering making charitable donation.
