On December 2, 2014, the National Black Justice Coalition (NBJC) will participate in the 3rd Annual#GivingTuesday, a day of giving back. #GivingTuesday is a first of its kind effort to transform how people think about and participate in giving during the holiday season. On this day, charities, families, businesses, community centers, students, retailers and more will all come together to celebrate the act of giving and encourage more, better and smarter giving during the Holiday Season. We need your help!NBJC is asking for you to support Black LGBT/Same-Gender Loving (SGL) justice by giving back on#GivingTuesday.
We invite you to be a part of this day of giving and celebrate our great tradition of generosity. NBJC will use the backdrop of #GivingTuesday to show how Black Americans can do much more with our wallets than just consume.
NBJC is turning to our colleagues, friends, family and loved ones to give back and support a movement for justice, with Black LGBT/SGL people at the forefront of the shift in our nation. #GivingTuesday will harness the power of social media to create a moment around the holidays dedicated to giving, similar to how BlackFriday and Cyber Monday have become days that are, today, synonymous with holiday shopping. OnDecember 2nd for #GivingTuesday, you can support our effort to build a movement to support and advocate for Black LGBT/SGL people. At NBJC, priority is given to train the next generation of Black LGBT/SGL activists and leaders.
