GivingTuesday is a global day of giving fueled by the power of social media and collaboration.
Celebrated on the Tuesday following Thanksgiving (in the U.S.) and the widely recognized shopping events Black Friday and Cyber Monday, GivingTuesday kicks off the charitable season, when many focus on their holiday and end-of-year giving. Remember The Georgetown Project in your year-end giving.
Click here for current NEST information! It takes $2,000 per year to support just one homeless/at risk high school student at our NEST Empowerment Center.

Did you know that you can donate to The Georgetown Project through the AmazonSmile program? It costs you nothing. Every time you make an eligible purchase through AmazonSmile, we receive a percentage! You just need to designate “GeorgetownProject” as your charity of choice. Simply go to https://smile.amazon.com from your web browser and start shopping! (NOT amazon.com – it has the identical products, but it’s a division of Amazon)
