继感恩节(星期四)、黑色星期五和网络星期一之后的周二,被称为Giving Tuesday(给予星期二),今年是12月1日。人们通常会做一些捐助活动,在这一天,邮箱里铺天盖地的都是号召捐款的eamil,似乎要把这个Giving Tuesday做成一个全球性的活动。
Now in its fourth year, Giving Tuesday is a global day of giving fueled by the power of social media and collaboration. Observed on the Tuesday following Thanksgiving (in the U.S.) and the widely recognized shopping events Black Friday and Cyber Monday, Giving Tuesday kicks off the charitable season, when many focus on their holiday and end-of-year giving. Since its inaugural year in 2012, Giving Tuesday has become a movement that celebrates and supports giving and philanthropy with events throughout the year and a growing catalog of resources.
As a global movement, #GivingTuesday unites countries around the world by sharing our capacity to care for and empower one another.
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.
