9 Things to Know About Giving Tuesday
Giving Tuesday is a global day of giving and unity. Now in its tenth year, Giving Tuesday is recognized as an opportunity for people and communities to come together in the spirit of generosity.
The first Giving Tuesday was held on December 4, 2012. Today, the day continues to be recognized worldwide.
Back to TopGiving Tuesday is an annual day of giving held on the first Tuesday after Thanksgiving. This year, Giving Tuesday will be held on November 29, 2022.
Following traditional days of spending, including Black Friday and Cyber Monday, Giving Tuesday stands in contrast. Instead, Giving Tuesday is focused on the act and spirit of giving back to children and families in need.
Back to TopThere are several ways to participate in Giving Tuesday this giving season.

- Making a donation
- Creating a Facebook Fundraiser
- Giving a gift from our gift catalog
- Sponsoring a child
- Play, stream or blog
The spirit of generosity can be found all around us and Save the Children recognizes this. As a global movement, Giving Tuesday is designed to inspire people and communities to come together at a time of the year when we can collectively reflect on those in need.
While Black Friday and Cyber Monday are recognized as days of spending, Giving Tuesday is an opportunity to donate—your time, your talent or your passion to transform your community and help change children's lives.
