This year, on Tuesday, December 1, 2015, Freedom to Read Foundation is participating in #GivingTuesday, a global day dedicated to giving.
Last year, more than 27,000 organizations in 68 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 December 1. Some ideas include:
Get your workplace and local government officials, nonprofits, and small businesses involved in #GivingTuesday. Encourage them to officially sign up as partners on the website (www.givingtuesday.org)
Help spread the word about #GivingTuesday. Use the hashtag #GivingTuesday to talk about charity and the causes and organizations you support.
For 45 years, the Freedom to Read Foundation has dedicated itself to protecting the right of libraries to provide access to the world of knowledge and ideas. This #GivingTuesday, consider making a donation to the Freedom to Read Foundation, and help us keep censorship efforts at bay.
Your gift of $250, $100, $50, $25 – any amount – is tax-deductible.
Thanks to everyone who has made this such a successful 2014. FTRF has done good and important work in the courts, in libraries, in the classroom, and in the virtual world. Help us continue that work in 2015!
