For Giving Tuesday 2025, we rounded up 15 organizations you can give your money or time to help make our communities better!
‘Tis the season of thankfulness and giving. Yet, with the consumer-driven rush of Black Friday and Cyber Monday, it’s all too easy to forget about what this season is truly about- giving back to those we love and our communities. Giving Tuesday offers us a moment to reset and refocus by serving as a reminder of what truly sustains our communities: generosity, solidarity, and collective action.
Launched in 2012 by the 92nd Street Y and the United Nations Foundation, Giving Tuesday was created to encourage people to give—whether time, resources, or advocacy—to causes and projects that protect, preserve, and strengthen our communities.
