BECKLEY, WV (LOOTPRESS) – Just For Kids Child Advocacy Center is responding to meet the needs of children who have experienced abuse by launching a GivingTuesday Campaign with new and innovative ways to donate. Donors can now sign up to donate their spare change to provide healing to abused children and their families.
After a donor signs up for round-ups and links their debit or credit card, then their spare change will be accumulated after each purchase and will be donated to the advocacy center at the end of each month. For example, if you spend $25.50 then .50 cents from that purchase will be donated to Just For Kids. Just For Kids is also offering an opportunity to give back monthly. Monthly donations are a sustainable giving option that provides the advocacy center stability.
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 29, and throughout the year.
Just For Kids joined GivingTuesday because they understand that there is strength in numbers. Abuse is a crime of secrecy, and we can change the conversation about child sexual abuse. Community support is what allows child advocacy centers to fulfill their mission of providing children of abuse and their families with the tools and resources needed to heal. Just For Kids has a goal of $1,500 and 10 new monthly and round-up donors.
Executive Director, Scott Miller, states, “GivingTuesday is a day to change the conversation about child abuse. Supporting Just For Kids is supporting the hope and vision for a better tomorrow for the children and families who have experienced abuse.”
Giving Tuesday was launched in 2012 as a simple idea: to create a day that encourages people to do good. Through the years, this idea has grown into a global movement that inspires hundreds of millions of people to give, collaborate, and celebrate generosity.
