About #GivingTuesday
We have a day for giving thanks. We
have two for getting deals. Now, we have #GivingTuesday, a global day dedicated
to giving back. On Tuesday, December 2, 2014, charities, families,
businesses, community centers, and students around the world will come together
for one common purpose: to celebrate generosity and to give.
About EDN's Work
Eritrean Diaspora Network (EDN)
is
a non-profit organization dedicated to mobilizing Eritrean diaspora
communities around issues of common concern, in a unique non-partisan
approach. EDN believes that a critical
component to overcoming the divisions within our community is to revive
the
profound kindness, goodwill, humility, and encouragement of one another,
that
our prosperity as a people has historically relied on. By providing our
community
a safe platform for constructive dialogue, we have been able to identify
ways
through which we can begin reviving these positive characteristics.
In doing so, EDN has has been able to prioritize programs
that will compel members of our community to get involved, regardless of personal
or political affiliations. We have already begun launching
programs targeted around civic engagement, recent arrival support, and professional
development. With your help we can be confident that these programs are well
positioned to achieve our ultimate goal of building a stronger Eritrean
Diaspora. Please support our efforts by donating on #GivingTuesday 2014, and
sharing our cause with your friends and family.
