Giving Tuesday 2019

WHAT IS #GIVINGTUESDAY?

We have a day for giving thanks. We have two for getting deals. Now, we have #GivingTuesday, a global day dedicated to giving back.

On Tuesday, December 3, 2019, nonprofits, charities, families, businesses, community centers, and students around the world will come together for one common purpose: to celebrate generosity and to give.

The movement began with New York’s 92nd Street Y and was joined by the United Nations Foundation, followed by influencers, corporations and nonprofits committed to spreading the word and their own #GivingTuesday initiatives. In its first year in 2012, more than 2500 partners from all 50 states propelled the movement forward by increasing charitable giving on #GivingTuesday.

Donations toward other university funds, such as the Bulldog Athletic Fund or Endowed Scholarship Funds, will also be accepted.For more information about making a gift to TLU on #GivingTuesday, visit www.tlu.edu/giving or follow the campaign on Twitter @TXLutheranFund and the TLU Alumni Facebook page.

It’s a simple idea. Just find a way for your family, your community, your company or your organization to come together to give something more. Then tell everyone you can about how you are giving. Join us and be a part of a global celebration of a new tradition of generosity.
