For the weeks leading up to GivingTuesday, SNP is celebrating with a Month of Thanks, honoring those who have helped us and all Americans get through a tough year, including the restaurants and grocery stores that have nourished and provided sustenance for us.

SNP is sharing ways you can express generosity right from your own home:

• Thank Restaurants. Order seafood meals from you favorite restaurants, post a photo of your meals and add #eatseafoodamerica #thankyourestaurants.
• Thank Grocery Stores. Make a seafood meal, post a photo of your meal and add #eatseafoodamerica #thankyougrocers
• Thank Fishermen and Seafood Farmers. Plan to make a seafood dish for Thanksgiving and add #eatseafoodamerica #thanksgiving.

GivingTuesday was launched in 2012 as a simple idea: to create a day that encourages people to do good. Over the past eight years, this idea has grown into a global movement that inspires hundreds of millions of people to give, collaborate and celebrate generosity.

"GivingTuesday inspires people all around the world to embrace their power to drive progress around the causes they care about, not just on one day but throughout the year," said Asha Curran, GivingTuesday's CEO and co-founder. "With country and community leaders, millions of organizations, and countless givers of all kinds, GivingTuesday is creating a shared space where we can see the radical implications of a more generous world."
