Since 2012, [GivingTuesday](https://www.givingtuesday.org/) has been a global initiative that encourages people to do good during the holiday season. This year on November 28th, join the movement and help your community get involved by supporting the causes that matter most to your school district!

GivingTuesday is all about spreading kindness and showing your generosity. There are a number of ways your district, students, and community can make an impact.

If you're wondering how to make a difference this year, consider these ideas:

- Encourage staff and students to give back by volunteering time at a local organization
- Perform an act of kindness for a classmate or co-worker
- Pay it forward to someone in your community
- Create a fundraiser that students can help organize and run

Our [MySchoolBucks School Store](https://www.heartlandschoolsolutions.com/en/payment-solutions) can also help by providing a safe and secure way to process online donations. Watch the video below to see how:
