The holiday season inspires so many reasons to give and get involved in charitable deeds. This is part of the motivation behind GivingTuesday. “Just as Black Friday kicks off the holiday shopping season, GivingTuesday is the opening day of the giving season†the organizers of this Christmas campaign explain. Most people want to give, but don’t do so until they are asked. So, the goal of GivingTuesday is to help charities garner support, and help individuals connect with a cause and get involved.
Again this year Services in Action has partnered with GivingTuesday because we too want to make connections between people who want to give, be it time or money, and organizations looking for support. Each December we run a campaign called All We Want For Christmas. This campaign highlights the wishes of our community partners.
“Services in Action works with a lot of people around the world who are driven to make lasting changes in their communities. All year long we hear inspiring stories of passion and determination. We want to share the drive of our partners and their stories during the season of giving to let possible donors know how their gift can make a lasting impact,†said Tiffany Nyklickova, Project Specialist with Services in Action. The goal of the All We Want for Christmas campaign is to provide a platform for our community partners to say what they need and to let donors know about the work of different charities.
