#GivingTuesday is Here; Learn How You Can Be a Part

Aimee Herd : Dec 1, 2015  Giving Tuesday

#GivingTuesday connects diverse groups of individuals, communities and organizations around the world for one common purpose: to celebrate and encourage giving.

If you're not familiar with #GivingTuesday, here's a description from their website:

Now in its fourth year, #GivingTuesday is a global day of giving fueled by the power of social media and collaboration. Observed on the Tuesday following Thanksgiving (in the U.S.) and the widely recognized shopping events Black Friday and Cyber Monday, #GivingTuesday kicks off the charitable season, when many focus on their holiday and end-of-year giving. Created in 2012 by 92nd Street Y—a cultural center in New York City that, since 1874, has been bringing people together around the values of service and giving back—#GivingTuesday connects diverse groups of individuals, communities and organizations around the world for one common purpose: to celebrate and encourage giving. A team of influencers and founding partners joined forces—collaborating across sectors, offering expertise and working tirelessly—to launch #GivingTuesday, and it has become a movement that celebrates and supports giving and philanthropy with events throughout the year and a growing catalog of resources.

To participate in #GivingTuesday, all one has to do is make a donation to their favorite non-profit. Using the Twitter #GivingTuesday hashtag to tweet about your gift will help to give the movement momentum and encourage others to give.

There are so many great non-profits doing effective work, it would be impossible to list them all, however, here are a few that come to mind...

Samaritan's Purse
Love146
Nightlight International
Mercy Corps
The Salvation Army
Christian Aid Mission
Gospel For Asia
St. Jude Children's Hospital
Your local pro-life pregnancy center
