“#GivingTuesday is a movement to create a national day of giving to kick off the giving season…#GivingTuesday communities joined a global movement of individuals and organizations that believe that everyone whether a large or small donor has a role in helping solve challenges at a local and global level.” (source)

For this year’s Giving Tuesday, we’d like to encourage our readers to check out our Community Arts Directory–Learn about a few community-engaged arts initiatives that you may not have heard of before and give your support to an initiative of your choice! Pick up the phone to start a conversation, email/tweet an initiative to tell them that they’re doing a great job or send a charitable donation! Whether your support be financial or verbal, all of it is important, all of it matters!

On a personal note, feel free to email, call (1-877-278-3002) or donate to ArtBridges/ToileDesArts as well!
