Spark generosity.
Light up LinkedIn with your stories of giving back.
Shine a light on a cause. Share a video!
When we give back to causes we care about, it lights up our world — and when we share that light with others, it can inspire them to get involved. So this Giving Tuesday, December 3, let’s light up LinkedIn with stories of generosity.
Post a short video using #GivingTuesday to show how you give back, whether it’s an hour volunteered, a donation to your favorite cause, or time spent on a nonprofit board. Then, tag a friend, family member, or colleague with a great giving story of their own to encourage them to post it on LinkedIn.
How to post a video for #GivingTuesday:
Record a short video, around 1 minute, sharing how you give back.
Open LinkedIn and create a new post with your video.
Use #GivingTuesday in your caption, tag someone to share their story, and don’t forget to tag the nonprofit you support.
Quick tips for creating great videos:
Before you start:
Ensure you’re in a well-lit, quiet environment, and take a moment to think through your key talking points to help you stay focused.
When you record:
Record your video vertically (it’s okay to use your phone) for the best viewing experience, and remember that there’s no need to edit or overproduce.
Help light up LinkedIn with your giving story.
