  • 1.  What are your Giving Tuesday plans?

    Posted 11-03-2023 04:38 AM

    Giving Tuesday is only a month away. It seems every year it sneaks up on us. I am curious, as small organizations, do you plan a campaign ahead of time for Giving Tuesday or do you just wing it? 

    In the past, we did a breakdown of what it cost to feed our sanctuary animals per day, week, month and asked donors to cover the cost of feed for a day or week. I would love to hear your campaign ideas and how you share your campaign with your supporters.

    We run a 7 day social media plea leading up to Giving Tuesday. We have been able to get donors to nation money coming in for a greater incentive. This year we are having volunteers do short videos to use during the week before. They are definitely amateur but hopefully appeal to the public.

    Thanks Lisa. I think AI must have taken over second sentence in my response. I have no idea what it even means! But yes, videos are fun.

    This is a great idea!  We are sending out an electronic newsletter and will social media posts, but having people make Giving Tuesday videos is a great way to make the cause more personal.

    Thank you for sharing!
