This year, on Tuesday, December 1, 2015, MMTC is participating in #GivingTuesday, a global day dedicated to supporting nonprofit organizations that work to bring positive change to communities around the world. Last year, more than 30,000 organizations in 68 countries came together to celebrate #GivingTuesday. Since its founding in 2012, #GivingTuesday has inspired giving around the world, resulting in greater donations, volunteer hours, and activities that bring about real change in our communities.
As you recover from the Thanksgiving holiday, please consider making MMTC your #GivingTuesday beneficiary!
Every dollar you donate helps us to support our research and policy initiatives; create jobs and opportunities for minority- and women-owned businesses; train minorities and women to own and operate broadcast stations; promote education in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math fields; bridge the digital divide; and train the next generation of leaders in the media, technology, and telecommunications industries.
