#Unselfie Will Fill You With Warm Holiday Cheer

By Annie Gabillet

Social media is the perfect way to raise awareness — and money — for a good cause. Take it from this Summer's Ice Bucket Challenge, which secured millions for ALS research. This time, our oversharing ways are being used for #Giving Tuesday, the Tuesday after Thanksgiving when everyone is encouraged to take a break from holiday shopping and donate. After donating, charitable Instagrammers are sharing photos of themselves and their cause with the #unselfie. Get in the spirit by checking out these snaps and the causes they support.
