What is Giving Tuesday?
GivingTuesday is the world’s largest generosity movement. Founded in 2012, its goal is to establish an annual day dedicated to giving.
In 2013, CanadaHelps, GIV3, and several other founding partners introduced GivingTuesday to Canada.
Each year, Canadian charities and donors participate, helping to offset the consumerism focus of Black Friday and Cyber Monday.
GivingTuesday is now recognized as the official kickoff to the year-end giving season and ranks as one of the top fundraising days of the year for charities. Participating charities are proven to see an increase in donations.
