GIVING TUESDAY is the world’s largest generosity movement
Giving Tuesday was created in 2012 as a simple idea: a day that encourages people to do good, make someone smile, help a neighbour or stranger, show up for an issue you care about, or give some of what you have to those in need. It has since grown into a global movement, unleashing the power of people and organizations to transform their communities and the world.
GivingTuesday is a time when Canadians and businesses come together to celebrate giving and participate in activities that support charities and non-profits; to thank, help, give, show kindness, and share what they have with those in need.
On December 3rd, consider making a gift of time or talent to a local charity, not-for-profit, community foundation or soup kitchen. Or make a monetary donation in your or a loved one’s name during the holiday season.
