Give Back To Roswell On Giving Tuesday

ROSWELL, GA — The City of Roswell will help the community get ready for #GivingTuesday by highlighting many of the nonprofit organizations that serve the Roswell community.

#GivingTuesday is a global day of giving that harnesses the collective power of individuals, communities and organizations to encourage giving and to celebrate generosity worldwide. Every year since the event was first launched in 2012, millions of people across the globe mobilize on #GivingTuesday to show up, give back, and change their communities.

“Roswell is home to many nonprofits that impact our community each day. In preparation of #GivingTuesday, the City wants to introduce our residents to these organizations—with the hope that you’ll find one whose mission speaks to you, so that you can connect with them on #GivingTuesday and beyond,” said Danny Blitch, Manager of the City’s Grants Division.

The city plans to highlight #GivingTuesday and the work of many nonprofit organizations that are part of its Nonprofit Partnership Program throughout November on its Facebook page. Connect with us at www.facebook.com/CityofRoswellGA and be sure to like, comment, and share to help spread the word.

The City of Roswell’s Nonprofit Partnership Program is managed by the City’s Grants Division, which facilitates collaborations and provides support to expand each organization's capacity to serve Roswell residents. While the city encourages its residents to connect with any nonprofit they wish to support, the organizations that are part of the Nonprofit Partnership Program go through an application process to ensure they serve Roswell residents.

In addition to the Facebook campaign, Mayor Lori Henry will proclaim December 3, 2019, as #GivingTuesday in Roswell during the Mayor and City Council meeting on Nov. 25.
