Thank You for Giving Tuesday 2024

Every year I dread writing this. It sounds insane but giving Tuesday feels so special that sometimes I think if I look directly at it or address it head on too much it might burst. It’s an anomaly of good existing in a world of division. It also feels false for me to be writing about it when the real heroes of the story are everyone else. As always putting words to something like this feels impossible. The only words I have are thank you.

I hope you know how much of a difference your contribution made. I hope you know that you are creating the kind of world you want to live in. You are rejecting the apathy that can develop when a system has been broken for so long and insisting on something better. Kids didn’t go hungry this month because of you. They stayed a little warmer and felt more cared for. They saw what the world could be. Through you.

Thank you.
