Social Media Resources
Giving Tuesday, a global day of giving, will be here on December 3, 2024! This year, you can help Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation (ALSF) support kids affected by cancer right now. Even better, ALDI is generously matching all online donations made to ALSF Giving Tuesday fundraisers that day, up to $100,000. That means every dollar you raise will count double for kids with cancer.
To make it simple, here are some resources to help you get started and maximize your impact on Giving Tuesday.
