What is GivingTuesday?
GivingTuesday is “a global generosity movement unleashing the power of radical generosity.”
The movement aims to create a world where generosity is part of everyday life. It is an encouragement for people to find ways to do good and participate in giving to a person or cause that they care about because “every act of generosity counts, and everyone has something to give.”
The idea was born at the 92nd Street Y in New York in 2012 before becoming its own independent nonprofit and global movement.
Join millions of people across 85+ countries participating in GivingTuesday this year on December 3, 2024!
Why give to Love Justice on GivingTuesday?
Love Justice is a nonprofit organization dedicated to fighting the world’s greatest injustices through human trafficking prevention and orphan care.
Our innovative transit monitoring strategy works in real-time to stop trafficking as it is happening but before the point of exploitation. By this method, trained staff spot signs of trafficking at busy transit areas and intercept potential victims, getting them to safety before it’s too late.
To date, we’ve intercepted more than 70,000 people to prevent them from being trafficked and helped arrest over 1,600 traffickers.
Through impact-multiplying strategies and a commitment to maximizing each and every dollar, we’ve seen exponential growth in our impact as an organization. Over the last 12 months, it has cost us less than $150 to intercept one person to prevent them from being trafficked.
In light of this growing exponential impact, we are beginning to dream of achieving a tipping point, where this kind of change becomes self-perpetuating and irreversible. We are beginning to dream of a future where ending human trafficking is truly possible.
We have never been better poised to turn money into impact. Click here to learn more about our impact.
