‘Tis the Season to GIVE Back
Giving Tuesday returns on December 1, 2026, giving companies a chance to turn this Global Day of Generosity into something employees can be part of.
In 2025, 38.1 million Americans participated in Giving Tuesday, contributing an estimated $4 billion in the U.S. alone. Beyond financial donations, 11.1 million people volunteered and 13.5 million donated goods, according to GivingTuesday.
Whether employees want to donate, volunteer, or come together for a hands-on give back experience, companies can make participation easy and accessible.
Here’s how to get started.
Offer Different Ways to Give
Not every employee wants to participate in Giving Tuesday the same way. Some may prefer making a donation, others may want to volunteer their time, and some may enjoy joining colleagues for a hands-on service project.
Give employees a few clear options and make participation easy. Share charitable giving resources, share information about volunteer opportunities, or organize a companywide give back experience.
Make It Easy to Donate
Employees can make individual donations, participate in a company fundraising campaign, or contribute to a matching gift program.
Companies can also encourage employees to support causes personally meaningful to them by providing reliable resources to research charities and make informed giving decisions.
Charity Navigator is a helpful resource for researching charities and reviewing their ratings before making a donation.
Encourage Employees to Volunteer
Giving time is another way to participate. Employees can help sort donations at food banks, volunteer at community events, support animal shelters, or contribute professional skills to organizations that need them.
Consider allowing employees to volunteer during work hours or organizing a group volunteer day at a local nonprofit connected to a cause that matters to your team. Idealist connects volunteers with onsite and virtual opportunities across a variety of causes.
Bring Your Team Together Through Giving
Giving Tuesday is also an opportunity to bring employees together around a shared cause.
Through Impact 4 Good’s hands-on give back experiences, corporate teams assemble essential supplies for families, create educational kits for students, and make comfort items for people facing difficult circumstances.
