What is Giving Tuesday?
Celebrated on the Tuesday following the widely-recognized shopping events Black Friday and Cyber Monday, #GivingTuesday is a chance to step out of the consumer mindset and support community giving. November 27th – Giving Tuesday – is a global day of giving fueled by the power of social media and collaboration. The day kicks off the charitable season, when many people focus on their holiday and end-of-year donations.
Why Donate to VGC?
Vancouver Goalball Club is running a #GivingTuesday campaign to support the 2019 Vancouver Goalball Grand Slam – the largest International goalball tournament west of Montreal. This is an opportunity for Para-athletes to compete at a high level and prepare for the Tokyo 2020 Paralympic Games. Events like the Vancouver Goalball Grand Slam are a necessary component to growing the sport of goalball both locally and internationally.
