Want to get more involved in Giving Tuesday this year? Here’s how!
Oh, it’s that time again – Giving Tuesday is less than a month away!
If you’ve been around us for a while, you’ll know we LOVE Giving Tuesday. Why? Because it’s the day where we see global generosity – people from all over the world gathering together virtually to spend their money to fund causes that literally help change the world. Black Friday and Cyber Monday are great days for gifting loved ones (bonus points if they’re ethically made products!), followed immediately by Giving Tuesday to gift fellow humans with dignity and empowerment.
This year, your FTG Giving Tuesday donations will go towards existing and new reintegration services for survivors of trafficking. Counseling, business training, entrepreneurial endeavors, community and social support, savings groups, women’s health – can you think of anything greater than being a part of a woman’s brand new future, one she has chosen for herself?!
In fact, we are launching a new program in Central America with 10 identified women who will be participating in the first class of FTG Honduras. Your donations help fund a new community of survivors and their families, walking alongside them as they begin to experience true freedom. What does true freedom look like? Take a look at one woman’s story in Costa Rica. Each survivor has their own experiences, and we are excited to get to know and work with these 10 new individuals in San Pedro Sula.
We aren’t asking for donations (yet!) – but are inviting you to be involved in Giving Tuesday in a new way – hosting your own fundraisers! If your people are on all the socials, create a fundraiser on Facebook, Instagram, or TikTok and share with your friends. If you’re off socials, you can create a personalized fundraiser on our website and email your contacts all the info. Organizing your own fundraiser isn’t nearly as daunting as you may think – we even have some shareable posts and suggested scripts to help you navigate the process which you can access here. Maybe you’ve held fundraisers in the past – we’d love for you to do it again! It’s so incredibly helpful. This year alone, fundraisers have brought in nearly $9500!
Be a part of the global giving trend for a good cause in a very impactful way. Have questions? Email us and ask!
