Gearing up to Give

Autumn is officially here. The days are getting shorter, the nights are getting cooler, and we even recently had some long-awaited rain! For me the fall is also about gearing-up for traditional celebrations; in my family that includes lots of birthdays as well as Halloween and Thanksgiving. This, of course runs right on into the winter holidays, which for us includes Christmas, New Years…and more birthdays! This year, in addition to my personal preparations I am also involved, on behalf of CUB, in the #OregoniansGive on #GivingTuesday Campaign.
#OregoniansGive seeks to bring together people from every city, town, and rural community, in a statewide #GivingTuesday celebration. Now in its fourth year, #GivingTuesday is always held on the Tuesday after Thanksgiving as a global day dedicated to giving back. So on Tuesday, December 1, Oregonians will join others from around the world in common purpose: to celebrate generosity and to give.
CUB will use #OregoniansGive on #GivingTuesday to kick off our end-of-year giving campaign by reaching out to our present member/donors as well as using social media to invite new Oregonians to join us! By joining the movement on Dec. 1st, 2015, CUB will be helping to create a new holiday tradition: a worldwide celebration of generosity.
So, look for the #OregoniansGive hashtag and logo on social media channels, on the CUB site as well as other non-profit websites and emails, and at the businesses you support. AND as you are gearing up for your holiday, please plan to give to CUB and make #GivingTuesday a new part of your tradition. With your gift you can join me in becoming part of the synergy that is #OregoniansGive-ing on #GivingTuesday.
