Voted! Yes, plan to send out another e-blast (sent one out a few weeks ago) and social media presence too. I'm trying to take a more personal approach and share stories about individuals in my campaign. I see 8 Giving Tuesday references as well. :)

It's a huge day for us. Last year we raised tens of thousands (we're a $3M organization) and our board did a 2:1 match. So, it's big! We're actually starting today and asking people to give between now and Nov 27 and will match all gifts made in that time period. We're also going bigger on socials, explicitly asking donors to tag six friends on socials and asking them to give. Fingers crossed that it makes for an even bigger giving day. Good luck, all!!

I'm going with 8 #GivingTuesday mentions and I took the poll. Every Tuesday since Halloween we've been posting, emailing, and sending videos out into the world. We're super excited for it.
