#GivingTuesday is a charity campaign that originated in the United States. Founded as a counterbalance to Black Friday and Cyber Monday, which have also reached Finland in recent years, the campaign aims to increase discussion and awareness about giving - in the form of time, help, acts of kindness and donations. Since 2012, the campaign has gathered participants from over 150 countries and has become a larger giving event in the United States than even Christmas.

Our mission is to inspire people to take action and do things in a way that feels most natural to them. Whether you represent an organization, a company, your local reading group, or yourself, we challenge you to think about how you can make your environment a better place to live. The day is what you decide to do with it. You can connect your actions to the ongoing campaign and make your participation visible with the hashtag #GivingTuesday #GivingTuesday------------Finnish Fundraising Association VaLa brought the international #GivingTuesday movement to Finland on 27th November 2018 - integrated into our culture as #GivingTuesday. The next #GivingTuesday will be celebrated on 3 December 2024.

The day is exactly what you decide to do. You can join to the day by tagging your campaigning and communication with #GivingTuesday #TekojenTiistai.
