#GIVINGTUESDAY A MOVEMENT OF GENEROSITY

Donations to Turnstone help to support programming for people with disabilities, including their inclusive Kimbrough Early Learning Center, shown here.
With the holiday season quickly approaching, Turnstone is gearing up for this year’s #GivingTuesday on November 27, a global day of giving that harnesses the collective power of individuals, communities and organizations to encourage local acts of philanthropy and to celebrate generosity worldwide.

#GivingTuesday encourages the whole community to consider how they can give back this holiday season. This could include volunteering time, making donations, and finding other ways to lend a hand to a neighbor or other meaningful cause.

The community is invited to celebrate #GivingTuesday with Turnstone by making a donation or signing up to volunteer for an upcoming event or program. The AWS Foundation has generously committed to match new and increased gifts $1 for $1 up to $10,000 to Turnstone only on #GivingTuesday!

#GivingTuesday is held annually on the Tuesday after Thanksgiving and the widely recognized shopping events Black Friday and Cyber Monday to kick off the holiday giving season and inspire people to collaborate in improving their local communities and to give back in impactful ways to the charities and causes they support.

“Turnstone is grateful to be able to participate in the worldwide #GivingTuesday movement,” said Mike Mushett, Turnstone Chief Executive Officer. “Support from our donors help Turnstone ensure we are able to provide vital resources and services for children and adults with disabilities when they need it most.” 

Those who are interested in celebrating #GivingTuesday with Turnstone can visit www.turnstone.org/givingtuesday or call Rena Burden at (260) 483-2100.
