"It's not how much we give, but how much love we put into giving." -
Mother Teresa

Here is a music and picture quiz for your enjoyment which helps celebrate 'Giving Tuesday' on 29th November.
Before starting, discuss the role charities play in making our world a better place. 🌎
How does it make you feel to give, money or something else?
What is the best gift you ever gave or received?
