3. GivingTuesdayNow Boost

GivingTuesday is a global movement for giving and volunteering, which takes place each year after Black Friday (late November-early December). This year as an emergency response to the COVID 19 crisis, the date has been moved up to May 5, 2020, which falls right in Ramadan.

Last year over 15,000 donors gave $5,000,000 in Zakat on LaunchGood. Does your organization collect Zakat?

We’re giving away $20,000 to verified Zakat Campaigns on the 23rd, 25th, and 27th of Ramadan.
