What is Giving Tuesday?

Giving Tuesday is a global day of generosity celebrated on the Tuesday after Thanksgiving. This holiday focuses on Non-Profits and encouragement to support these businesses. It encourages people to donate to charity, volunteer, or engage in acts of kindness. 

What is IRIS doing for Giving Tuesday?

We are asking for donations to our Global Grants and Scholarship Program.

 

The grants are provided to enable alumni to contribute to the social, economic, and civic development of their countries. The IRIS Alumni Global Grant is intended to give alumni the opportunity to initiate projects of their own design in their home countries

 

This program also aids YES Alumni in obtaining their education through scholarships. The IRIS Global Citizen Scholarship is intended to assist IRIS alumni in continuing their educational pursuits by offering scholarships to attend training workshops or pursue other educational endeavors in their own country.

 

It is through our donors that we are able to give our students this opportunity which is greatly appreciated.
