#Giving Tuesday is Coming!
#GivingTuesday is Coming!
All Gifts Matched!*
Self-Help International is once again joining in on #GivingTuesday Movement. To further honor this day of charitable giving, the Self-Help International Board of Directors has promised to match over 30,000 dollars in donations made this Giving Tuesday!
Following the widely recognized shopping days of Black Friday and Cyber Monday, Giving Tuesday is held annually on the Tuesday after Thanksgiving to kick off the holiday giving season. The day inspires people in their local communities to come together and give back to the charities and causes they support! This year you can save the date for Tuesday, November 27th.
“We have such a great group of key supporters making this important work of ending hunger possible each year,” said Self-Help Board President Richard Neal. “We were so inspired by the response to last year’s Giving Tuesday matching campaign that our Board wanted to again offer an opportunity to double the impact of your donations. Looking ahead to next year, during our 60th anniversary, we hope to take a major step in increasing the size of our programs in Nicaragua and Ghana and it is through the combined generosity of the Board and the donors that it will be possible.”
This year donations for Giving Tuesday can be made November 13-27! Make your gift and mark it as Giving Tuesday in order to increase your impact to alleviate hunger by helping people help themselves. All donations will be matched by the Board in order to increase the effect of the 2018 giving season.
“As we gather around our tables of plenty, we give thanks for the food we have to eat, the family and friends we share it with, and the farmers who grow it,” said Self-Help executive director Nora Tobin. “Too often, farm families struggle to meet their own food needs. The funds donated during this campaign will ensure we can continue to offer integrated programs that tackle hunger from many angles – balanced nutrition, economic opportunity, and improved food security – to truly alleviate hunger by helping people help themselves.”
