Did you know Giving Tuesday started in 2012 with a simple idea—to spark generosity worldwide? Since then, it’s become a beautiful reminder of the power of kindness and the magic of coming together as a community. When you give—whether it’s donating, volunteering, or sharing your skills—you’re not just supporting a cause. You’re helping nonprofits keep their doors open, their teams supported, and their programs thriving. Unlike grants or contracts, which often come with restrictions, donations, big or small, make a world of difference by giving organizations the freedom to adapt, grow, and plan for a better future.
