Join the Global #Giving Tuesday Movement
by Michelle Wood, OAT Development Manager
It’s the most wonderful time of the year-- to give! Tomorrow is Giving Tuesday, a day rife with generosity and grassroots giving across the globe. It can also be a day filled with communications from all of the nonprofits you know (and even some you don’t). But there’s a good reason for this-- in 2020, $2.47 billion was given on Giving Tuesday alone! A staggering 13% of all U.S. adults participated by donating money, giving goods, and volunteering.
Here are some ways you can join the global Giving Tuesday movement with a gift to OAT this year:
Buy a raffle ticket: Purchase tickets for OAT’s online raffle: Tickets are on sale until Dec. 20, 2021.
Become a regular. Become a monthly donor: Support OAT by becoming a Cultivator!
Build a Barn! Join OAT’s Barnraiser’s Circle: it’s a big lift to build a barn, and we appreciate it. Support at this level ($1,000 or more per year) helps give OAT flexibility and real influence.
Donate stock. OAT accepts publicly traded and non-publicly traded securities.
Give Time We need bright eyes and/or strong backs for a vast array of projects. If you’re a professional with time to give, we have great work to do.
Giving Tuesday only comes once a year, but OAT is in the business of perpetuity. We establish working lands easements to permanently protect agricultural lands across Oregon. A gift to OAT is a gift that helps safeguard Oregon’s rural communities, food systems, and scenic open space for generations to come. Give today to keep ag land “For Ag. Forever.”
