#GivingTuesday is December 3, 2024. This annual day of giving was created to inspire people, businesses and communities to come together for one common purpose - to make a difference for causes they care most about.
*You are invited to join us in this day of giving back to the community. There are a two ways to get involved:
Make a Donation to the FSCJ H.O.P.E. Food Pantry
- Make a financial contribution to the FSCJ H.O.P.E. Food Pantry using the form on the fscj.edu/givingtuesday website. Your generosity will provide the funds necessary to help stock the pantry shelves for our student facing food insecurity. Learn more about the FSCJ H.O.P.E. Food Pantry.
