District LCIF Giving Tuesday – December 1, 2026
GIVING TUESDAY – December 1st
Giving Tuesday is a global day of giving and kindness–this year falling on December 1, 2026 (always the Tuesday following Thanksgiving and the big consumer holidays). Many non-traditional donors participate in making gifts to good causes this day.
Giving Tuesday began in 2012 as a partnership between the 92nd Street Y and the United Nations Foundation to create a day of giving in response to the rise of commercialism after Thanksgiving. It was launched as a social media campaign to encourage people to ‘do good’ by donating to charities, volunteering, or taking other actions to support their communities.
The movement continues to grow globally, with U.S. donations reaching a record $4.0 billion in 2025 from roughly 38.1 million participants.
Your Lions Clubs International Foundation provides grant monies for Childhood Cancer, Hunger, Vision, Diabetes, Youth, Disaster Relief, Humanitarian Efforts, and the Environment. Your support does so much for so many in so many ways!
We are encouraging all Lions in District 37 to click on the link below and donate to LCIF to celebrate Lions and Giving Tuesday this year: https://giving.gofundme.com/campaign/857481/donate. Will you give a $5-$10 donation toward Giving Tuesday, on or about Tuesday December 1st?
Donations can also be made by calling 1-630-203-3836 or sending a check to LCIF, 300 W. 22nd St., Oak Brook, Il, 60523-8842 USA. Thank you for your previous and future support.
Feel free to contact us with any questions, or to schedule a club visit to showcase the many grant possibilities available from LCIF.
Yours in Lionism,
