What is Giving Tuesday?

Giving Tuesday was created in 2012 as a day dedicated to doing good. The site givingtuesday.org refers to it as a “global generosity movement…that inspires hundreds of millions of people to give, collaborate, and celebrate generosity.” Giving Tuesday is always the Tuesday after Thanksgiving, and it’s a way for people to celebrate the holiday season by supporting a cause close to their heart.

Why should I support Kidsave on Giving Tuesday?

All funds donated to Kidsave on Giving Tuesday go directly to helping older kids in foster care find loving families and permanent support systems. Research shows that kids who age out of foster care without a family or support system are more likely to become unemployed, homeless, or incarcerated compared to youth who do have the love and support of family. At Kidsave, our innovative programs champion older kids who are so often overlooked and forgotten by society, and help them create connections with caring adults, many of whom become their forever family.

Your support can help change the trajectory of a child’s life! Support Kidsave this Giving Tuesday and year-round and help bring a child in foster care one step closer to finding their forever family.
