For seven years, #GivingTuesday has sought to harness generosity into a sustained movement that brings meaningful change to communities worldwide. Today, PN will have the opportunity to participate in driving this change forward on a global scale. As noted last week, we will continue to evolve our own Purpose in the year ahead with a steadfast commitment to diversity and inclusion. Which is why, during this incredible season of giving, we are offering everyone the chance to lend a helping hand to those in need. No matter how you decide to engage, whether it be through the donation of time, resources or talents, we do hope you choose to join us in support of #GivingTuesday.
