Fresh Future Farm to Celebrate GivingTuesday on November 28th
Press Release
This GivingTuesday, Fresh Future Farm will inspire generosity by raising funds to subsidize access to locally raised meat products in their North Charleston, SC USDA grocery store.
GivingTuesday is a global generosity movement, unleashing the power of people and organizations to transform their communities and their world. GivingTuesday will kick off the generosity season this year by inspiring people to give back on November 28, 2023, and throughout the year.
FFF joined the GivingTuesday movement to boost awareness and attract support for the food justice work the urban farm and grocery store is accomplishing in the city. Whether it was rapid response funds to pay rent, utilities and bi-monthly groceries for our neighbors during COVID or multiplying recurring donors to support day-to-day affordable grocery and education operations, the Palmetto State continues to respond with enthusiastic generosity.
“Many customers have achieved radical health improvements (myself included) and want to support farmers and customers alike by making locally raised meat and protein products into inventory staples in our sliding scale grocery store.”
GivingTuesday was launched in 2012 as a simple idea: to create a day that encourages people to do good. Over the past nine years, this idea has grown into a global movement that inspires hundreds of millions of people to give, collaborate, and celebrate generosity.
People demonstrate generosity in many ways on GivingTuesday. Whether it’s helping a neighbor or stranger out, showing up for an issue or people we care about, or giving to causes we care about, every act of generosity counts. GivingTuesday has raised billions of dollars for critical causes around the world and gets billions of impressions on social media from people and organizations speaking up for the causes that matter to them and encouraging others to get involved in their communities.
“GivingTuesday inspires people all around the world to embrace their power to drive progress around the causes they care about, not just on one day but throughout the year.” said Asha Curran, GivingTuesday’s CEO, and co-founder. “With country and community leaders, millions of organizations, and countless givers of all kinds, GivingTuesday is creating a shared space where we can see the radical implications of a more generous world.”
