Giving Tuesday is a world-wide movement that follows the hustle and bustle of Black Friday and Cyber Monday. It is an opportunity for us all to channel the generous spirit of the season by giving back to help others. Join fellow Tigers by being of service to others or making a gift to the University of Memphis.

Are you are passionate about student success, research, diversity and service? Of course you are! You are a fellow Tiger. You bleed blue! Join your fellow Tigers to make a big impact on the lives of UofM students. 

The Center for Service Learning and Volunteerism (CSLV) provides services to students, faculty, staff and community partners to encourage community service-learning that is mutually beneficial to the university and our local community.

To get started or learn more about how to volunteer, visit How to Serve for more on how to use our volunteer platform, VolunteerCompass. 

Acts of service can come in various ways. Our Tigers are passionate about meeting the needs of the community. That's why Student Leadership & Involvement proudly partnered with Volunteer Odyssey to provide vetted service opportunities for students. No act of service is too big or too small. Join the #GivingTuesday movement by volunteering today.

Food disparity is real. You can be part of the solution by donating non-perishable items to the Tiger Pantry. The Tiger Pantry team would also like to purchase more fresh food to continue promoting healthy food habits. No contribution is too big or too small. Get involved today. Join the #GivingTuesday movement by fighting hunger today.

A generous spirit runs through all Tigers and now is your chance to show yours. Together, we can ensure UofM remains at the forefront of student success, affordability, academic excellence, research and innovation.

Simple ways you can participate in #GivingTuesday:

   Let someone have your parking spot.
   Pay it forward by buying someone a coffee.
   Give someone in need a hug.
   Give someone a smile.
   

   Make a gift to the University of Memphis.

The spirit of philanthropy is contagious, so be sure to give back and spread the word to your friends and family about University of Memphis giving opportunities.

Be part of the movement by sharing your story. Take an "#UNselfie" with a caption explaining how or why you are giving back this year. Be sure to tag it with #UNselfie and #GivingTuesday.
