Thanksgiving week is filled with traditions. Of course, the biggest is the family feast we're all looking forward to tomorrow. Then, after the food coma wears off, many people will be heading out to do a little holiday shopping. But as we saw here in Buffalo last year,
the stores aren't always the safest place to be on "Black Friday"!

If you'd like to avoid being run over by the Black Friday madness, stay home and "Give Something that Means Something" instead! Visit the Red Cross
Holiday Giving Catalog online and make a donation in honor of the loved ones on your list this year. You can give a variety of symbolic gifts that support the Red Cross mission, such as blankets, a full day in an emergency shelter for disaster victims, phone cards for our military men and women, or vaccinations that can save lives around the world.
A recent
Red Cross poll showed that four in five Americans said they'd rather receive a charitable donation in their honor than more "stuff" they'll never use. When you shop the Holiday Giving Catalog, your loved ones will receive a free greeting card, letting them know that this generous donation has been made in their honor, and they'll be satisfied in knowing that they're helping their neighbors in need this holiday season. And you can stay home, warm and comfy in your jammies, instead of fighting the Black Friday stampedes!
