Portland, November 21st, 2015. The concept is simple, you know about “Black Friday” and “Cyber Monday.” Well, local nonprofits would like to introduce you to “Give Tuesday!”
The Date for “Give Tuesday” is December 1st, 2015. It’s a day of giving to help nonprofits like the local dance companies which hold free classes outside for kids. Organizers explain, “Whether you were born here, or chose this place as your home, you make Oregon what it is today – and you can play a part in a brighter tomorrow. #OregoniansGive will bring together people from every city, town, and rural community, in a statewide #GivingTuesday celebration of what it means to be Oregonian.”
Opal Creek Ancient Forest Center, is an ecological wonderland that’s been preserved for the future through the hard work of a great nonprofit and the continual generosity of many Oregonians. #oregoniansgive
In just four year’s time, #GivingTuesday has become a global day of giving which nonprofits from around the world have had success with reaching new donors, inspiring more giving, and recruiting new volunteers. And #GivingTuesday has experienced massive growth, between 2011 and 2012, the event saw a 53% increase in donations year-over-year. And a 90% increase over last year. As more nonprofits participate, #GivingTuesday’s reach expands to an ever increasing base of supporters.
So the countdown to Give Tuesday is on, but if you’d like, you don’t have to wait. We’ve got the links to the local nonprofits welcoming you donations, now and after Thanksgiving. As organizers say:
“We’re Oregonians. We’ve got this.”
