SUMMARY:Giving Tuesday
DESCRIPTION:Give someone the #GiftofHope this Giving Tuesday\nWe’re putting our own spin on Giving Tuesday with the #GIFTOFHOPE\, a special fundraiser that empowers you to to help support the 1 in 100 people living with epilepsy throughout Southwestern Ontario this holiday season and beyond. \nWhat is Giving Tuesday?\nGiving Tuesday is a global movement for giving and volunteering. It’s a time when people all over the globe rally together for the causes they care about. There is no better time to think locally and make a difference right in your community. \n3 Ways to Get Involved on Giving Tuesday\nDonate\nSupport a child with epilepsy by providing their entire classroom with education about epilepsy and seizure first aid with a donation of just $50. Imagine the peace of mind this would bring to the student with epilepsy in the classroom. \nCrowdfund\nShare our crowdfunding page with family and friends. \nPost an #UNselfie\nPost an unselfie telling your friends why you support us. (An unselfie is just like a selfie\, but with a generous twist. Take a photo of yourself holding a sign that tells your followers who you’re supporting for #GivingTuesday and why.) \nLearn more about what we have going on for Giving Tuesday by heading to our Giving Tuesday landing page here.
