#GivingTuesday, is a global day of giving that harnesses the collective power of individuals, communities and organizations to encourage philanthropy and to celebrate generosity worldwide. Occurring this year on November 28, #GivingTuesday is held annually on the Tuesday after Thanksgiving (in the US) and the widely recognized shopping events Black Friday and Cyber Monday to kick off the holiday giving season and inspire people to collaborate in improving their local communities and to give back in impactful ways to the charities and causes they support.
On Nov. 28, the Muncie Children’s Museum will be participating in Giving Tuesday. As consumers we engage in Black Friday, Cyber Monday, and now we are asking you to participatein Giving Tuesday. We invite you to join the global movement
and take action to help our museum animals.
We are pleased to announce that First Merchants Bank will again partner with us for this year’s campaign. For every $5 raised, First Merchants will donate an additional $1. Last year we raised over $2,400!
Funds raised by MCM during Giving Tuesday will provide support for the care of MCM’s many animals. At the museum, we shelter and care for a group of animals from all over the world that were either pets, born in captivity, or were injured. These animals are not releasable into the wild. They remain with us acting as ambassadors for their wild counterparts.
Our goal this year is to raise $3,000. Gifts of any amount are welcome. You can make your pledge now at: https://app.etapestry.com/onlineforms/MuncieChildrensMuseum/donate-1.html
We’re thrilled to partner with GivingTuesday on #GivingTuesdayKids! With youth shaking up and spearheading many of the major movements on key issues facing our world today, from climate change to healthcare to student debt, GivingTuesday is helping amplify the next generation of young leaders to be organizers, thought-leaders, and campaign managers for a more generous world.
