#GivingTuesdayNow is a new global day of giving and unity that will take place on May 5, 2020 – in addition to the regularly scheduled Dec 1, 2020 #GivingTuesday – as an emergency response to the unprecedented need caused by COVID-19.
The day is designed to drive an influx of generosity, citizen engagement, business and philanthropy activation, and support for communities and nonprofits around the world.
People can show their generosity in a variety of ways during #GivingTuesdayNow:
- Helping a neighbor
- Advocating for an issue
- Sharing a skill
- Giving to causes
The global movement will emphasize opportunities to give back to communities and causes in safe ways that allow for social connection even while practicing physical distancing.
We invite our community to stand together beginning today Tuesday, May 5 to support the nonprofits responding to the growing needs in the Navarre Beach area.
If you are interested in finding ways to give in our community, here is the list of nonprofits in our area doing amazing work during this unpredictable time.

“As a global community, we can mourn this moment of extreme crisis while also finding the opportunity to support one another. We each have the power to make an impact with acts of generosity, no matter how small, and to ensure the sustainability of organizations and services that are crucial to the care and support of our communities,” said Asha Curran, CEO of GivingTuesday. “#GivingTuesdayNow is a chance for us to stand united and use grassroots generosity to show that we are all in this together, beginning to end. Even as many face financial uncertainty, generosity is not about size. From calling an elderly neighbor to chat to offering translation help; from showing gratitude to our healthcare workers to donating to your local food bank, every act of kindness is a beacon of hope in this crisis. We all have something to give, and every act of human consideration and kindness matters.”
SPECIAL NOTICE: The Navarre Chamber will be showcasing our non-profits on #GivingTuesdayNow and sharing ways our community can show their support financially and/or helping a neighbor in need.
