STACK the Stage – GivingTuesday

GivingTuesday is a National Giving Day

 

Most people know about Black Friday and Cyber Monday  …now GivingTuesday is coming to Lethbridge on December 2, 2014.

 

GivingTuesday is a new Canadian movement for giving and volunteering, taking place each year after Cyber Monday. The “Opening day of the giving season,” it is a day where charities, companies and individuals join together to share commitments, rally for favourite causes and think about others.

 

“We have two days that are good for the economy. Now we have a day that is good for the community too.”

 

Streets Alive Mission is a registered GivingTuesday partner!
