There’s a trifecta of shopping days right after Thanksgiving.
First comes Black Friday, then Cyber Monday and then comes a day you might not be as familiar with — #GivingTuesday!
What’s #GivingTuesday? It’s a national movement! A global day of giving powered by social media and collaboration.
As part of #GivingTuesday, StandUp For Kids has set a goal to raise $7,500 to bolster our nationwide outreach and training for next year.
$7,500 may not sound like much, but StandUp For Kids can make it go a long way. With just $7,500, we could buy:
-
365 nights of shelter
-
300 teens a 14-day bus pass so they can look for work
-
150 kids five hygiene supplies each
-
100 kids groceries for a week
Help us reach our goal by donating to StandUp for Kids on #GivingTuesday. Visit https://donatenow.
And consider Giving Monthly so we can provide steady support to homeless youths throughout the year. A small donation made monthly is often easier on your wallet and can help us better budget our resources for year-round support.
So when you’re doing your holiday shopping, save a little for #GivingTuesday and help StandUp achieve our 2017 goal. You’ll be delivering much-needed supplies and support to homeless kids who could really use it.
