Each year, after a week of holiday celebration (and probably quite a bit of shopping), the public joins together to give back to the causes they care about. Known as Giving Tuesday<\/u><\/a>, the post-Thanksgiving “generosity movement” brings millions of individuals, nonprofits, and businesses together to spread the spirit of giving \u2014 not just among us Americans, but around the world.\u00a0<\/p>\n

This year, the day of generosity falls on Nov. 29.<\/p>\n

Part of the Giving Tuesday tradition includes corporate pledges to giving back, often in the form of grants, fundraising campaigns, or donation matching. Benevity<\/u><\/a>, a corporate purpose software provider and giving platform, reported that more than $112 million corporate dollars were donated across 43,000 causes<\/u><\/a> during last year’s Giving Tuesday.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Broadly, Giving Tuesday 2021 garnered an estimated 35 million participants<\/u><\/a>, raising $2.7 billion in the U.S. alone. And it’s not just a monetary cause. The movement, which operates year-round campaigns, also reported an increase in volunteering, up 7 percent from 2020, as well as donations in kind<\/u><\/a> \u2014 last year, giving items<\/em> was the most popular form of giving in the U.S. In 2022, the official Giving Tuesday campaign hopes the swell of increased generosity (in whatever ways that manifests) only continues to grow.\u00a0<\/p>\n
