what is #GivingTuesday?

​#GivingTuesday is a global day of giving fueled by the power of social media and collaboration.

Why choose to support Swift Youth Foundation this #GivingTuesday?
​2017 will mark the third year that Swift Youth Foundation will be participating in this global day of giving. Here’s how we have utilized your generous contributions in the last year:

• A record breaking # of campers at the 2017 session of CampSwift, 305 in total!
• In addition to our 10 months of programming, we have closed the gap between elementary and high school age youth through the creation of Club Swift Jr.  A program specifically geared towards middle-school youth.
• With the majority of all donations going directly back to programming, through funds raised last #GivingTuesday, Swift Youth Foundation was able to provide programming for an additional 90 at-risk youth!

​Over the next year, Swift Youth Foundation will further solidify our existing programming by strengthening how we meet basic needs, encourage life skills, and provide our participants with unique opportunities.  Your generous contribution will make it possible to increase the number of healthy snacks that meet our youth’s basic needs, enhance the curriculum that encourages life skills development, and provide more opportunities that youth would not normally be granted.
