#GivingTuesday harnesses the potential of social media and the generosity of people around the world to bring about real change. As a global movement, #GivingTuesday unites countries around the world by sharing our capacity to care for and empower one another. In 2016, over £130m was raised over 98 countries to help support charities around the globe.
