#GivingTuesday takes place once a year, on the Tuesday after Thanksgiving — this year, on November 29. This day is an important moment for organizations and individuals to give, collaborate with, and celebrate causes near and dear to them.

With your support, RAINN is leading the national effort to support survivors and end sexual assault. During the holidays, survivors can feel isolated or even triggered by gatherings with friends and family. We see an increase in use of the National Sexual Assault Hotline, and more than half of hotline users are children. This is a critical time for many survivors of sexual assault.

You can help even more survivors when you make a gift to our #GivingTuesday campaign thanks to a generous matching gift, where all donations up to $40,000 will be doubled, to support survivors on their path to healing.

RAINN’s victim service programs have helped more than four million survivors and their loved ones since 1994. Your gift, matched now through #GivingTuesday, will help even more people now and throughout the holiday season.

Here is one way that you can participate in this #GivingTuesday:

• Make a donation to RAINN today. Your generous contribution provides RAINN with critical resources to ensure that when a survivor reaches out asking for help, RAINN is there to answer the call.
