BRIGHTEN ACADEMY CHARTER SCHOOL

Brighten Academy Charter School is excited to be launching our first-ever participation in #GivingTuesday!If you work in the nonprofit world, odds are that you’ve heard of #GivingTuesday. But what is #GivingTuesday? Who runs it? How do you participate?

#GivingTuesday is a global day of giving that takes place annually on the Tuesday after Black Friday and Cyber Monday. On #GivingTuesday, nonprofits ask their supporters and communities to contribute to their cause. In 2021, #GivingTuesday is November 30th. Each year the event takes exactly five days after U.S. Thanksgiving, which means that the date changes each year. It is intentionally placed right after Black Friday and Cyber Monday.

It’s very simple: after indulging around the dinner table at Thanksgiving and breaking out our wallets to shop on Black Friday and Cyber Monday, #GivingTuesday aims to put the focus on charitable giving. It’s a day where nonprofits, their supporters, and their communities come together, in-person and online, to give back.

#GivingTuesday is also the unofficial beginning of year-end giving for all nonprofits, which is particularly important for Brighten because donations can put our school in a position to ramp things up in the Spring of 2022 with more learning, more growing, and more financial security.

Help our school continue moving forward by giving generously, but more importantly, by asking our friends and family to do the same.
