Giving Tuesday Ireland 2022

Giving Tuesday, a global day of giving takes place on the 29th November. Brought to you by Cii and our partners GoFundMe, Salesforce & Toucan Tech.

Giving Tuesday is a day where everyone, everywhere can do something to support the good causes that mean so much to them.

You can volunteer your time; donate money; share your skills; campaign for something; donate goods, food, or clothes; organise a community event such as a street or park clean-up or a coffee morning. The list really is endless.

It is a day to give back by supporting a cause close to your heart or doing something good for your local community or someone in need.

We promise to bring you lots of webinars, resources and toolkits over the months ahead.
