3 Communicate with your community Share your GivingTuesday goals and activity
to build anticipation and excitement. Gather inspiring, authentic visuals Use email, social, phone, or in person
meetings. Make sure all your communications drive to a
specific action (if you’re asking for donations make sure all your messages include your online donation link)
Ask your supporters to share your stories and theirs.
Celebrate as a community on November 27th!
