Save the Date! GivingTuesday 2021
November 30 is GivingTuesday 2021!
It’s time to kick off the holiday season and Year-End Giving with the global day of generosity! Originally created in the United States in 2012, the day provided a wholesome and helpful outlet in response to the consumerism of Black Friday and Cyber Monday. It has since expanded to a worldwide phenomenon.
In the U.S. alone, more than $2.47 billion was raised for nonprofits on GivingTuesday in 2020. Nearly a third of all charitable giving occurs in December, which means this is the time of year to really make those campaigns count and start the new year off strong. Commit to running a GivingTuesday campaign and reap the potential benefits:
- Greater brand awareness
- Increase in donations
- Potential new donors
- Opportunity to promote recurring/monthly giving programs
- New networking opportunities
- Increase in social media engagement
No matter your school or organization’s size, GivingTuesday provides an incredible opportunity to get in front of your supporters and inspire action. It’s a chance to raise awareness about your cause and expand your audience, making future campaigns (hint hint, Year-End Giving) more successful!
