About GivingTuesday (from GivingTuesday.org)
GivingTuesday is a Movement that Unleashes the Power of Radical Generosity Around the World.
GivingTuesday reimagines a world built upon shared humanity and generosity.
Our global network collaborates year-round to inspire generosity around the world, with a common mission to build a world where generosity is part of everyday life.
Whether it’s making someone smile, helping a neighbor or stranger out, showing up for an issue or people we care about, or giving some of what we have to those who need our help, every act of generosity counts, and everyone has something to give.
New Fairfield has many opportunities for giving and volunteering. Please see the Make-A-Difference page on the Town website, www.NewFairfield.org, for some ideas as to how you can give back to your community.
