#GivingTuesday is a global day of giving that harnesses the collective power of individuals, communities and organizations to encourage philanthropy and to celebrate generosity worldwide. Following Thanksgiving and the widely recognized shopping events Black Friday and Cyber Monday, this year’s #GivingTuesday will take place on November 27th and will kick off the giving season by inspiring people to collaborate and give back.

The Giving Tuesday initiative was Founded in 2012 by the 92nd Street Y – a community and cultural center in New York City − #GivingTuesday inspired millions of people to give back and support the causes they believe in. Over $300 million was raised online to benefit a tremendously broad range of organizations, and much more was given in volunteer hours, donations of food and clothing, and acts of kindness. “We are incredibly inspired by the way the #GivingTuesday community has embraced this concept for a worldwide movement,” said Henry Timms, founder of #GivingTuesday and Executive Director of 92Y. “As we prepare for November 27, we’re energized and encouraged by the community’s generosity. The levels of creativity, effort and the quality of the new ideas people have contributed and shared are phenomenal.” Those who are interested to join the movement can visit SEM Cares Foundation on Facebook or use the hashtag #GivingTuesdayEswatini.

About The Campaign
On 27th November 2018, we will have a walk around Manzini at 12 pm from Enguleni House, Dairy Board Building and the walk will be awareness towards our mission towards this campaign. We have started sending out letters to more than 30 local businesses and outside town which we strongly believe they will be willing to give back to our community. Once we have collected everything we will then distribute what we manage to rise to our local community, our youth which is our future. This distribution will be done on the 01st December 2018 since its world AIDS day.
