Illinois Gives Big


After Black Friday and Cyber Monday comes Giving Tuesday.

We're participating in #GivingTuesday (this year on December 2), where nonprofits, individuals, businesses, and organizations around the world come together for one common purpose: to celebrate generosity and to give.

We'll hope you'll join us in getting the word out about our effort to strengthen the Chicago Public Library via your own personal social media. Post a message on your Facebook, Twitter or Instagram letting everyone know why you support the Chicago Public Library Foundation.

I give to the Chicago Public Library Foundation because _________. You too can give big at cplfoundation.org/givebig  #ILGiveBigCPLF

In Illinois, Donors Forum is coordinating the state-wide initiative, and calling it #ILGiveBig.

Our Library Foundation goal for #ILGiveBig is to attract 100 new and lapsed donors, raising $10,000 in one day. Proceeds benefit program initiatives at the Chicago Public Library.
