Hi everyone,
As you may know, Giving Tuesday is an international day of giving that is celebrated on the Tuesday following Thanksgiving. This year we would like to join this movement by encouraging our employees to observe Giving Tuesday in the workplace.
We are proud to offer employer matching for any donations made to a local charity of your choice. You can submit your donations receipt to HR and we’ll match your donation!
Additionally, you can donate non-perishable food items for the local food bank. The collected items can be dropped off in the break room. There will be several bins available Tuesday through Friday following Thanksgiving.
We hope that you will join us in this effort to make a difference in our community! Any amount, no matter how small, will help those in need this holiday season.
Thank you for your support!

How to create a Giving Tuesday campaign at work
Giving Tuesday, observed on the Tuesday after Thanksgiving, champions the power of generosity and community. It started in 2012 as a collaboration between New York’s 92nd Street Y and the United Nations Foundation. The initiative was a response to the consumerism of Black Friday and Cyber Monday, aiming to instill the charitable spirit of the holiday season through acts of giving. It has since expanded into a global movement that encourages philanthropy and celebrates altruism.
Incorporating Giving Tuesday into the workplace reflects a company's commitment to community and social good, aligning business practices with global efforts to support charity and volunteer work. It's a day that can galvanize employees to contribute to meaningful causes and can amplify the impact of collective giving through workplace campaigns. It’s a meaningful gesture that fosters a culture of kindness and demonstrates an organization's dedication to societal wellbeing.
To partake in Giving Tuesday at work, consider these initiatives:
- Match employee donations to incentivize generosity and double the impact.
- Organize a company-wide fundraiser or drive for a local nonprofit or global cause.
- Share educational materials about the importance of philanthropy and how to get involved.
- Allocate time during work for a group volunteering event or to engage in community service.
- Spotlight ongoing company social responsibility projects that employees can support.
- Encourage team leaders to discuss the importance of giving with their departments.
- By engaging in these activities, businesses can reinforce the significance of community involvement and charitable giving, creating a ripple effect of goodwill and social impact.
