Giving Tuesday is 3 December 2024, a chance to join with thousands of others across the world in supporting your favourite causes and celebrating the impact of giving.
Your Impact
Your giving is making a difference through Solas by enabling us to work with Christian Unions across the UK. Just last month our speaking team was up north in Aberdeen at Robert Gordon University and down south at the University of Southampton, as well as Glasgow, Dundee and York! We are helping seeking students work through the big questions of life and training student leaders in sharing their faith. Young Christians are eager to have an impact on their campuses, and Solas is coming alongside them to speak, train and equip with tools like Have You Ever Wondered? and Short Answers.
Thank You
We want to take this opportunity to say a big ‘thank-you’ to the hundreds of individuals who have already given financially to Solas this year. As well, Giving Tuesday isn’t just about money – those who offer prayers are so important to us, along with many partners who give their time and hard work to put on events up and down the country. If that’s you – then thanks!
Your Opportunity
If you can, please join with us this Giving Tuesday by making a special gift in support of our work sharing the gospel on university campuses, in workplaces, online and with local churches in pubs, cafes and community venues. Choose a one-off gift, or commit to monthly giving, it’s your choice.
What is Giving Tuesday?
The Giving Tuesday campaign began in the USA in 2012 as a way to give back after the well-known shopping days of Black Friday and Cyber Monday. Since then it has been promoted by the likes of Michelle Obama, Stephen Fry and Harry Kane. The campaign is coordinated in the UK by the Chartered Institute of Fundraising.
