The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have taken to their social media platform again to raise awareness about a charitable cause.

Today, Duchess Meghan and Prince Harry posted an inspirational quote on their Instagram, encouraging their nearly 10 million followers to "do good" on Giving Tuesday, a holiday on the Tuesday after Thanksgiving that promotes charitable giving at the start of the holiday season.

They picked a quote from the late Leo Buscaglia, an American motivational speaker. "Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around," the quote read.


Accordingly, the Sussexes captioned the moving message with a call to action. "An inspiring quote for #GivingTuesday, a day that encourages people to do good." The caption continued, "GivingTuesday is a global generosity movement unleashing the power of people and organisations to transform their communities and the world on December 3, 2019 and every day."

Yesterday, Meghan and Harry also encouraged charitable giving on their Instagram by highlighting 12 charities that they support, keeping with theme of 12 Days of Christmas. Among these select charities are the Los Angeles Mission, an organization that serves the homeless in Los Angeles, and Centrepoint, a charity for homeless people of which Prince William patrons.
