Giving Tuesday is coming!

GivingTuesday is coming. Do you know what you're doing yet?

Created in 2012, #GivingTuesday is a global generosity movement that encourages people and organizations to transform their communities and the world by doing good. Last year, $3.1 billion of critical support for communities and causes was donated in just 24 hours during the annual global celebration of generosity, as reported on GivingTuesday.org.

While hundreds of millions of people are inspired to give, collaborate, and celebrate generosity, there are many people that want to participate but don’t know how or where to go. This is where the Global Black Philanthropy Initiative (GBPI) comes in. GBPI allows people to donate to organizations that are directly and actively making a global impact on the Black community.

Featured Organization

The Good Vine

There are roughly 120,000 orphaned children in Eswatini, high rates of teenage pregnancy, and gender disparity when it comes to access to education, healthcare, and adequate housing. Pastor Emmanuel Nduwa founded The Good Vine in South Africa after years of caring for children, young people and women in need. After a difficult childhood Pastor Emmanuel wanted to create an organization that would empower youth and women and provide education and nutrition programs for children. Ultimately, The Good Vine wants to break the cycle of poverty in Eswatini.

The Good Vine has various skill-building workshops, vocational training programs, and mentorship initiatives to empower local communities and vulnerable groups through economic development, education, and financial assistance.

Some of their programs are:

Water Supply Project – impacting families and whole communities
Coding School Program – empowering young people to become entrepreneurs
Skills & trades training (handcrafts, baking, business) – empowering women to start their own businesses

The Good Vine currently needs In-Kind items (food, computers, baking equipment, sewing machines), Financial Donations, and Volunteers.
