Giving Tuesday Now is a new global day of giving and unity that will take place on May 5, 2020 – in addition to the regularly scheduled Dec 1, 2020 Giving Tuesday – as an emergency response to the unprecedented need caused by COVID-19. This day will provide an opportunity for many struggling nonprofits and our team is ready to support any way we can. This blog will help narrow your focus on some important aspects and provide you with resources to use.

Now is the time to start preparing and planning your approach. It is important to start creating a detailed blueprint so when the day comes around, you can efficiently maximize it.

Our 5 tips and resources for Giving Tuesday Now.

1. Create content now. You can start by preparing social media posts, create custom donation forms on CONNECT, film interviews with partners, etc. Use this opportunity to be strategic as possible and focus on what has been successful for your organization in the past. When May 5th comes around, you will be ready and can focus on sharing updates and progress towards your fundraising goal.
