The GRAMMY Foundation and MusiCares invite the public to support their work on#GivingTuesday™, a campaign to create a national day of giving on the Tuesday following Thanksgiving - Nov. 27, 2012. In addition, for those interested in the cause of music education, there is a special incentive to make a donation to the GRAMMY Foundation - a very generous board member will match all donations made on #GivingTuesday, up to $10,000, so every dollar counts twice as much.
