#GivingTuesdayNow, planned for May 5, 2020, is being deployed in response to needs expressed by communities and leaders around the world.

#GivingTuesdayNow is a new global day of giving and unity that will take place on May 5, 2020—in addition to the regularly scheduled Dec 1, 2020 #GivingTuesday—as an emergency response to the unprecedented need caused by COVID-19.

At a time when we are all experiencing the pandemic, generosity is what brings people of all races, faiths, and political views together across the globe. Generosity gives everyone the power to make a positive change in the lives of others and is a fundamental value anyone can act on.

York County Community Action will actively participate in #GivingTuesdayNow, with the understanding that even as we practice physical distancing, we can remain connected through kindness and generosity. This is an opportune time for people to stand together in unity—to use their individual power of giving to remain connected and heal.
