Fundraise For The Kids on Giving Tuesday!

After indulging in a massive Thanksgiving feast and then chaotic shopping sprees on Black Friday, Small Business Saturday, and Cyber Monday, Giving Tuesday emerges as a wonderful moment in the holiday season to pay it forward and help others.

This year, Giving Tuesday falls on Tuesday, December 3, providing a perfect opportunity for Dance Marathon participants to engage donors in their fundraising efforts!

Participants who have set up Facebook fundraisers connected to their Dance Marathon Dance Marathon Donor Drive fundraising pages have the opportunity to have their donations matched by Facebook on Giving Tuesday! Launching at 8 a.m. EST (5 a.m. PST), Facebook will release $7 million to be distributed through Facebook. Ask your friends to support your Facebook fundraiser for Dance Marathon and, if they act fast before the $7 million run out, the donation will be matched.

It is important for fundraisers to enable their Donor Drive integrated Facebook Fundraiser prior to Giving Tuesday to be prepared to take advantage of the matching opportunity.

Even after Facebook’s matching funds have run out, Giving Tuesday is still a great opportunity to ask donors to support your local CMN Hospital through your Dance Marathon fundraising efforts.
