Last updated on

  • By

Last Tuesday, on 2nd December 2025, something special happened. For 24 straight hours, we brought together 24 incredible charities from around the world – each doing meaningful work that changes lives, and thousands of nonprofit leaders ready to learn and grow.

This wasn’t just another livestream. It was a gathering of people who care deeply about their causes, sharing spotlights on real organizations while handing out practical tools that anyone could use right away.

For the featured charities, it meant more visibility during the biggest giving day of the year.
For everyone watching, it meant walking away with proven strategies, a free fundraising kit, and fresh connections with others facing the same challenges.

Here’s what went down, why it mattered, and how you can still benefit from everything we shared.

Shining Light on 24 Incredible Charities

During Giving Tuesday 24, we gave 24 remarkable organizations the platform they deserved. From animal rescues in the Caribbean to literacy programs for boys worldwide, maternal health in Uganda, and environmental restoration on Long Island – these charities represent the best of what nonprofits do every day.

For viewers, it was a chance to discover meaningful causes worth supporting – organizations making tangible differences in their communities.

The Free Fundraising Kit: Giving You Our Best Tools and Tips

We believe nonprofit success comes from sharing real-world knowledge and practical resources, not just theory. That’s why we created and gave away a comprehensive free fundraising kit, packed with tools and tactics we use ourselves.

Inside, nonprofits found:

  • 🚀 Fundraising Essentials: How to plan a successful fundraiser from start to finish
  • 🤝 Donor Management: Streamline donations and build stronger supporter connections
  • 📊 Track & Optimize: Measure progress and celebrate real success with data
  • 💡 Campaign Ideas: Fresh, proven concepts ready to launch
  • ️ How Charitable Helps: Maximize your plugin for smoother, faster fundraising
  • ⭐ Recommended Tools: Our top picks for nonprofits we trust
  • 📚 Free Resources: Guides, support, and extras to fuel your mission

This kit is designed to empower organizations of all sizes to raise more with less stress. And the best part? It’s still available for download if you missed the event, so your nonprofit can keep benefitting.

Real nonprofits have told us that applying even just a few strategies from this kit made their campaigns smoother and more successful. We’re proud to share our “secrets” openly to help you accelerate your impact.

If you missed the event, don’t worry! You can still grab the free Charitable Ultimate Fundraising Toolkit packed with proven tips and strategies to boost your nonprofit’s success.

Workshops That Made an Impact: Simple, Real, and Ready to Use

Our 24-hour Livestream was packed with workshops designed to cut through the noise and deliver practical advice based on real nonprofit experience. We know fundraising can feel overwhelming, especially with rapid tech changes, and that’s why our sessions focused on what really works, presented in easy-to-digest formats.

Highlights included:

  • Flash Fundraising: How to launch crisis campaigns fast and effectively
  • Stop Overpaying: Discover free tools that can save you money and streamline your work
  • Donation Page Rehab: Three quick fixes that can boost your conversion rates
  • Design for Dollars: Choosing website themes proven to attract donors
  • The Trust Factor: Seven ways to build social proof and inspire giving
  • AI for Nonprofits: Understanding AI without the overwhelm, and how it can support your mission
  • Plus a lively Live Q&A session to answer your burning questions

We created these workshops after thinking carefully about the biggest challenges nonprofits like yours face every day and what would help you most.

The AI workshop especially came from knowing how many nonprofits struggle with this. Most teams aren’t tech-savvy, so we wanted to show you how easy it is to get started: the right tools to use, simple ways to begin, and how AI can save you time and boost your work right away.

Our goal was simple: provide clear, actionable insights that you can apply immediately to strengthen your fundraising results.

The Ripple Effect We Hope to Create

We believe stronger nonprofits create stronger communities. That’s the real goal behind Giving Tuesday 24. When featured charities gain new visibility, they reach more donors and build lasting partnerships. Viewers discover causes worth supporting and leave with tools to grow their own impact.

Our hope is simple. Featured charities see increased donations and stronger networks. Every nonprofit watching improves their fundraising and serves more people. Together, this leads to more lives changed worldwide.

These connections and strategies create momentum that lasts all year. One workshop tip or new supporter can spark bigger results for your mission. That’s the ripple effect we designed this event to achieve.

What We Hoped Viewers Walked Away With

We designed Giving Tuesday 24 to give nonprofits exactly what they need most: simple tools for immediate results and strategies that build long-term success. Our hope was that you’d leave feeling equipped to tackle your biggest fundraising challenges with confidence.

We wanted you to walk away with:

  • Ready-to-use strategies that work without tech overwhelm
  • Fresh ideas to connect better with donors and supporters
  • A network of nonprofits facing the same hurdles you do
  • Real data insights to make smarter decisions about your campaigns

Most importantly, we hoped you’d feel empowered knowing small changes can create big impact. The free toolkit and workshop tips exist to help you turn that confidence into action for your mission.
