Today\u2019s the Day\u2026Happy #GivingTuesday!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We are so excited GivingTuesday is here! Today is an international day of giving, now in its 7th<\/sup> year, celebrated each year on the Tuesday after Thanksgiving. This global giving movement harnesses the generosity of people worldwide to support the causes they believe in and the communities in which they live.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Your generous gift on #GivingTuesday will help support Children\u2019s Home & Aid programs that change lives for Illinois children and families. Best of all, thanks to a generous donor, your gift will be matched, doubling your impact on the children and families you care about.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We have so much in store for you today, including Facebook and Instagram Live videos showcasing our staff, children, youth and families. These videos will give you a glimpse at your gifts in action at our program sites across Illinois.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Last year generous friends like you contributed nearly $100,000 on this day, which included a match from a generous donor. This year we\u2019d like to raise even more, but we need your help!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
