ASIS&T to Participate in #GivingTuesday | ASIS&T<https://www.asist.org/news/asist-to-participate-in-givingtuesday/>
www.asist.org
Something magical happens when we tell a person that they matter.  That they are important.  It changes their lives by empowering them.  And the wonderful thing is - we all can make this magic happen. There is nothing more magical than having the world open to you through Information Science. Unfortunately, technology is not available to everyone. ASIS&T believes we can make a magical impact in one day. As a community, we can do this by supporting an organization that provides technology to philanthropic organizations, nonprofits and libraries around the world through #GivingTuesday on November 29th. #GivingTuesday is a special call to action to create a global day of giving that brings diverse organizations and communities around the world together to give back. Last year 700,000 people participated and raised $116 million in over 70 countries. This year, #GivingTuesday will be on November 29th. The ASIS&T Board of Directors has selected TechSoup Global to partner with on this




Thanks,


Daniel

Something magical happens when we tell a person that they matter, that they are important. It changes their lives by empowering them. And the wonderful thing is - we can all make this magic happen. That is why ASIS&T is participating in #GivingTuesday<http://asist.us12.list-manage1.com/track/click?u=de58424ef2e609298efbb4a00&id=4ddcf91366&e=4ee537f9f0>!

Unfortunately, technology is not available to everyone and there is nothing more magical than having the world open up to you through Information Science. ASIS&T believes we can make such an impact.

As a community, we can do this by supporting an organization that provides technology to philanthropic organizations, nonprofits, and libraries around the world. The ASIS&T Board of Directors has selected TechSoup Global<http://asist.us12.list-manage1.com/track/click?u=de58424ef2e609298efbb4a00&id=a714b895be&e=4ee537f9f0> to partner with on this initiative. TechSoup Global provides software products to nonprofits, charities and libraries worldwide.

This year, #GivingTuesday<http://asist.us12.list-manage.com/track/click?u=de58424ef2e609298efbb4a00&id=00c0b464fd&e=4ee537f9f0> will be on November 29th. #GivingTuesday<http://asist.us12.list-manage1.com/track/click?u=de58424ef2e609298efbb4a00&id=ba651e4622&e=4ee537f9f0> is a special call to action to create a global day of giving that brings diverse organizations and communities around the world together to give back. Last year 700,000 people participated and raised $116 million in over 70 countries.

We ask that ASIS&T members go to the TechSoup Global donation page<http://asist.us12.list-manage.com/track/click?u=de58424ef2e609298efbb4a00&id=5c7fd993db&e=4ee537f9f0> to make a donation on or before November 29th. If every member just gave $50, we could make a powerful global contribution. Please make sure to indicate that your donation is for #GivingTuesday<http://asist.us12.list-manage.com/track/click?u=de58424ef2e609298efbb4a00&id=a8ac3ef596&e=4ee537f9f0> in the Donation Program Designation field, to ensure the money goes towards libraries and globally.

Let us support TechSoup Global continue to serve the global community through innovative technology assistance services, products, and resources.

Thank you for your contribution.



Sincerely

Richard Hill

Executive Director, ASIS&T
