Every year, it seems that the message of Giving Tuesday is reaching more and more people. What a beautiful thing it is to be able to serve the people both within your community and others around the world. If Giving Tuesday is new to you, welcome. This is a worldwide initiative focused on sharing gratitude and kindness at a time of year when so many are focused on asking and receiving. While this year's official Giving Tuesday has passed, don’t let that stop you from continuing to be a light in your homes and communities. You can continue to participate in the cause by getting involved in local service projects, starting your own initiatives, giving directly to organizations you support, and volunteering when possible. Giving shouldn’t be limited to a specific day or season.
True Leaf Market's 2023 Giving Tuesday Recap
It has been an incredible delight to again partner with Utah Dine Bikeyah for 2023’s Giving Tuesday. Throughout this partnership, we have hoped to spread awareness of how important it is to recognize the history, values, and contributions of the Native American people across this country.

Through your generous participation, we were able to provide $2,500 dollars in cash donations, thousands of seeds, an assortment of our most recent seed products, and a $500 gift certificate to True Leaf Market for their future needs of seed and garden supplies. We know this will be put to good use!
