Giving Tuesday is a global day of giving and unity that takes place on November 30, 2021. Canadians are being asked to join the movement by demonstrating the power of kindness and generosity.

Join the movement by showing your support for those in our community!

A great resource in Yukon is the Yukon Gives Facebook page.

This website is a project of CPAWS Yukon, a Whitehorse-based organization dedicated to protecting our wild spaces. It offers a way to connect with non-profits and charities across the Yukon.

Leading up to Giving Tuesday, they will highlight a range of organizations in our community.

United Way Canada has been publishing videos on the theme of community, mixing interviews with a delightful animated style. Here’s Chad and Travis’ story.
