Why a dollar, and why every month
On its own a dollar is small, which is why almost anyone can give it. One million people each giving $1 a month is $12 million a year. That is the goal behind our name.
A gift that repeats does more than a larger one given once, because it can be counted on. So this GivingTuesday we are asking for the smallest gift there is, and asking you to let it keep going.
