1 Mar 2019 by GivingTuesday

GivingTuesday is a global generosity movement, with online and offline activity in every country, on every continent. At a local level, we are led by hand raisers in towns, cities, states, and countries. Despite diverse cultures of philanthropy, our leaders around the world, share the values of GivingTuesday, centered on generosity, citizen participation, and collective action.

Our latest hand raisers are Diana Carolina Miller and Ely Rodriguez of FUNDECISE, who will lead the #GivingTuesday Costa Rica campaign. “We fell in love with this movement,” says Diana. “At FUNDECISE, we believe that we have something that we can give, and at the same time, we receive Sometimes we forget that it is not just about giving money – our skills, knowledge, talents and our being can realize the change we want to cultivate. ”

Here’s a sneak peek at the new #GivingTuesdayCostaRica logo:

“For #GivingTuesdayCostaRica, it is important for us to promote that we have more to give than to a bank transaction, we can give you a lot of money. us it is important to promote innovation, information technology, and communication (ICTs) in all ages and places in Costa Rica- to be able to support the reduction of economic poverty (Poverty in Costa Rica was raised to 21.1% of households in 2018) , generate development and be a pioneer in the world in solving these issues. ”

When asked about the impact she’s hoping that GivingTuesday has on Costa Rica, Diana said, “it’s a great value to be able to take part in the #GivingTuesday or #UnDiaParaDar movement. It’s a great opportunity to be pioneers and to encourage and invite other organizations that have our same dream of increasing generosity and being able to make a mark in our country and in the world. ”

“El movimiento nos enamoró ya que creemos desde FUNDECISE que todos tenemos un trueque o algo a cambio que podemos dar y recibir al mismo tiempo. A veces nos olvidamos de que no solo se necesita dinero si no que nuestras habilidades, conocimiento, talentos y solo nuestro ser pueden realizar un cambio en donde nosotros queramos sembrar.”

Aquí hay un adelanto del nuevo logotipo de #GivingTuesdayCostaRica:

Para #GivingTuesdayCostaRica es importante y queremos promover que tenemos más que dar que una transacción bancaria. Que no solo tenemos que dar a personas que estén en pobreza económica o situación difícil; si no que todos podemos dar algo e intercambiar. Para nosotros es importante el promover al mismo tiempo la innovación, tecnología de la información y comunicación (TICs) en todas las edades y lugares en Costa Rica para poder apoyar a la reducción de la pobreza económica (La Pobreza en Costa Rica se elevó a 21.1% de los hogares en el 2018), generar desarrollo y ser pioneros en el mundo en estas temáticas.”

Cuando se le preguntó sobre el impacto que espera que GivingTuesday tenga en Costa Rica, Diana dijo: “Es una gran oportunidad como pioneros poder incentivar e invitar otras organizaciones que tienen nuestro mismo sueño de dar y poder dejar una huella en el país o en el mundo.”
