#Giving Tuesday: A Day to Give Back

image description

This year, we have the unique opportunity along with other nonprofits, and national companies to help transform Tuesday, December 3, 2013 into the second annual #GivingTuesday, a day to kick off the season of giving. On the heels of Thanksgiving, Black Friday and Cyber Monday, people around the world are dedicating a day to philanthropy and service.

As you know, our mission is providing opportunities for people with disabilities and barriers to employment seeking independent and productive lives. #GivingTuesday will help us spread the word about the work that we do right here in Kansas. Our goal is simple: to help our neighbors with developmental disabilities or other barriers find productive and competitve employment.

You can help transform the day into #GivingTuesday in several ways:

1. Make a donation to Goodwill. No matter how big or small, every donation will make a difference!

2. Donate your gently used clothing items or housewares to one of our retail locations across the state!
2. Share our Facebook and Twitter posts with your followers & friends.
3. Express your gratitude on your social media accounts by sharing your words of thanks and “unselfies.”
4. Promote #Giving Tuesday and giving to Goodwill.

 

In order to raise awareness and funds for Goodwill Industries of Kansas, we have registered on the #GivingTuesday website and can be found on the Partners section of the site.

Follow #GivingTuesday on Twitter, watch for more info on Facebook, and please help spread the word!

Thank you for your ongoing support!
