Giving Tuesday

Giving Tuesday, celebrated the Tuesday after Black Friday and Cyber Monday, is a global day of generosity where individuals, businesses, and organisations are encouraged to give back to their communities through donations, volunteer work, and acts of kindness. This day is all about shifting the focus from consumerism to compassion, reminding everyone that the holiday season is a time to help those in need.

The Giving Tuesday movement, which started in 2012, has grown into a worldwide celebration of generosity. It’s an opportunity for everyone to support causes that matter to them, whether through financial donations, volunteering time, or raising awareness. From local charities to global initiatives, Giving Tuesday offers endless opportunities to make a positive impact.

It’s a day to reflect on what we can give, not just financially, but in terms of time, kindness, and resources to uplift others. Businesses often join in by matching donations, sponsoring charitable events, or organising volunteer activities for their employees.
