NeighborImpact invites you to celebrate #GivingTuesday
NeighborImpact celebrates #GivingTuesday by asking followers on social media to “Give $5, Tag 5 Friends.”
Join NeighborImpact’s #GivingTuesday initiative by visiting Facebook.com/neighborimpact. Make a donation of at least $5 to NeighborImpact to kick off the charitable giving season, and post it to Facebook. When you make your post, tag 5 friends, and challenge them to make a gift greater than or equal to yours. Be sure to use #GivingTuesday, tell them why you choose to give, and tag NeighborImpact! The campaign will run through the remainder of 2018, ending on December 31.

#GivingTuesday is a global day of giving that harnesses the collective power of individuals, communities and organizations to encourage philanthropy and to celebrate generosity worldwide. Following Thanksgiving and the widely recognized shopping events Black Friday and Cyber Monday, this year’s #GivingTuesday will take place on November 27th and will kick off the giving season by inspiring people
to collaborate and give back.
Founded in 2012 by the 92nd Street Y – a community and cultural center in New York City − #GivingTuesday inspired millions of people to give back and support the causes they believe in. Over $300 million was raised online to benefit a tremendously broad range of organizations, and much more was given in volunteer hours, donations of food and clothing, and acts of kindness.
“We are incredibly inspired by the way the #GivingTuesday community has embraced this concept for a worldwide movement,” said Henry Timms, founder of #GivingTuesday and Executive Director of 92Y. “As we prepare for November 27, we’re energized and encouraged by the community’s generosity. The levels of creativity, effort and the quality of the new ideas people have contributed and shared are phenomenal.”
