Giving Tuesday: How It Impacts Your Fundraising

Preparation is key! That’s one piece of advice that we’ve heard from many of our top teacher fundraisers. When a donation match is coming up (like this one on December 3), they alert their family, friends, and other supporters in advance.

Giving Tuesday is a particularly good opportunity to ask people to support your classroom because they’re already in the giving spirit. If you’re not familiar with Giving Tuesday, you can read their official FAQ on their website.

Last year, 34 million U.S. adults donated $3.1 billion to causes they care about on Giving Tuesday. By telling your network about our donation match early, they can plan to give to your classroom when it will have the biggest impact.
