Giving Tuesday
GihveirnegaTguaeisnd. a Tyhise Humane Society of Imperial County is celebrating GivingTuesday by joining millions around the world participating in the global generosity movement on Nov. 30.
GivingTuesday is a global generosity movement, unleashing the power of people and organizations to transform their communities and their world. GivingTuesday will kick off the generosity season this year by inspiring people to give back on Nov. 30 and throughout the new year.
For those who are unfamiliar with GivingTuesday, it was launched in 2012 as a simple idea: to create a day that encourages people to do good. Over the years, this idea has grown into a global movement that inspires hundreds of millions of people to give, collaborate and celebrate generosity.
People demonstrate generosity in many ways on GivingTuesday. Whether it is helping a neighbor or stranger out, showing up for an issue or people we care about, or giving to causes we care about, every act of generosity counts. GivingTuesday has raised billions of dollars for critical causes around the world and gets 21 billion impressions on social media from people and organizations speaking up for the causes that matter to them and encouraging others to get involved.
As always, the Humane Society of Imperial County is raising funds for the homeless pets of our community, and your generous contribution will make a HUGE impact. Whether you donate $5 or $500, every dollar helps. As many already know, the Humane Society of Imperial County heavily relies on the love and support of friends near and far. Each and every day animals that have been mistreated, neglected, abandoned and forgotten flood through the shelter’s doors. Many of these animals are fearful and do not understand what is going on or why their families have given up on them. All they need is a gentle hand and someone to let them know that everything will be OK.
Your donation will ensure that the shelter team is that gentle hand. This year alone the Humane Society of Imperial County has taken on more medical and special needs cases than ever before. GivingTuesday presents the perfect opportunity for our community to come together and help the shelter to save thousands of homeless pets that will fall into its care in 2022.
Everyone is excited to be part of the global celebration of giving, so please help the shelter reach its goal by advocating, sharing with your friends and family, and of course donating. Everyone can make an impact this coming GivingTuesday. It’s not just about making a donation; it’s about making a difference for a homeless pet in need.
