FM Foundation is once again involved in Giving Tuesday 2023, with 54 platforms in 11 countries helping over 6,000 beneficiaries.
On January 12, 2024
Giving Tuesday is an annual worldwide movement of generosity. It takes place after Thanksgiving at the end of November, in response to the frenzy of Black Friday and Cyber Monday. It began in 2012 in the United States and is now present in over 100 countries. Its purpose is to encourage and celebrate giving, involvement and solidarity around the world, so that society becomes aware of the importance of giving and mobilizing to help each other.
Giving Tuesday is a key annual event for FM Foundation. Once again this year, thanks to the involvement of FM Logistic employees, a large number of collections have been organised.
