Giving Thanks and Giving Tuesday


Since our last blog post about what members are #DZGrateful for this month we’ve seen hundreds of posts and photos from our sisters giving thanks for Delta Zeta and all they have gained because of their experience. We’ve also seen how our members are donating time and treasure to their communities during this season of giving.

As the United States celebrates Thanksgiving this week, and the unofficial kick off of the holiday season, a new idea is circulating which celebrates how people give back. You’ve heard of Black Friday and, more recently, Cyber Monday, but do you know that Tuesday, December 2, 2014 is #GivingTuesday? Giving Tuesday is a “global day dedicated to giving back.”

Delta Zeta members give back every day. Whether it be in a volunteer role, through chapter community service events, fundraisers for philanthropy partners like the Painted Turtle camp, Starkey Hearing Foundation and Gallaudet University or by even making a donation to the Delta Zeta Foundation.

So let’s tell our story on #GivingTuesday!

Take a moment this week to plan how you can participate on December 2. And then tell us by tagging @DeltaZetaNatl in your Instagram photos, your Twitter posts and use the #DZGrateful and #GivingTuesday hashtags. We can’t wait to see how Delta Zeta gives back on December 2!
