#GivingTuesday is a global generosity movement unleashing unleashing the power of people and organizations to transform their communities and the world. GivingTuesday began in 2012 as a simple idea: a day that encourages people to do good. Since then, it has grown into a year-round global movement that inspires hundreds of millions of people to give, collaborate, and celebrate radical generosity.

It’s a simple idea: whether it’s making someone smile, helping a neighbor or stranger out, showing up for an issue or people we care about, or giving some of what we have to those who need our help, every act of generosity counts and everyone has something to contribute toward building the better world we all want to live in.

On this day of global giving, please consider a donation to the Achieve Foundation of South Orange & Maplewood as we kick off our year-end appeal season.

The Achieve Foundation promotes high-quality education that prepares South Orange-Maplewood School District students for the future. We support our students, families and educators by addressing inequities, inspiring innovation and fostering community.

Our priorities are to:

Champion Excellence: enhancing student experiences through meaningful programs, grants and funding that advance best educational practices

Build Community: bringing together and working in coordination with stakeholders (students, families, teachers, administrators, volunteers, community at large) to strengthen and enrich educational experiences
Deliver Solutions: listening to stakeholders, evaluating options, and responding to evolving needs throughout the District
