Did you know that giving is good for your health? That’s right, that good feeling you get from helping others may not be just a feeling. According to the Cleveland Clinic, giving can actually boost your physical and mental health by potentially lowering blood pressure, increasing self-esteem, lessening depression and lowering stress levels. They even go so far as to say you might even live longer and feel happier and more satisfied from giving, and who are we to argue with science?

If you’re looking for a great way to reap all of the health benefits of giving, consider joining one of the largest giving movements in the country — Colorado Gives Day is Tuesday, December 8. Not only is it a great way to contribute to your community, it’s also a way to give yourself a much-needed health boost during what has been an extremely stressful year.
