This year, on Tuesday, November 29, 2016, Read Aloud West Virginia is participating in #GivingTuesday, a global day dedicated to giving.
Last year, more than 45,000 organizations in 71 countries came together to celebrate #GivingTuesday. Since its founding in 2012, #GivingTuesday has inspired giving around the world, resulting in greater donations, volunteer hours, and activities that bring about real change in communities. We invite you to join the movement and to help get out and give this November 29 and beyond.
Here are some ways you can get involved:
- Donate to Read Aloud West Virginia or another beloved charity organization.
- Create your own fundraiser on Facebook in support of Read Aloud West Virginia. The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation is matching donations made to these fundraisers for a limited time in honor of #GivingTuesday.
- Use the hashtag #GivingTuesday to talk about charity and the causes and organizations you support.
- Volunteer! Visit our calendar or contact us at mhoyer@readaloudwestvirginia.org or (304) 345-5212 to find an orientation session near you.
