About the countdown to Giving Tuesday
Because it chases the fourth Thursday of November, Giving Tuesday moves every year between late November and early December.
The day was created as a counterpoint to the shopping rush, encouraging donations and volunteering instead of purchases.
The counter above reads from your device clock and refreshes every second, so the days, hours, minutes and seconds always reflect the time remaining right now. The next Giving Tuesday falls in ISO week 49 of 2026. When the day arrives the page says so instead of showing a zero, and from the following day it moves its target to 2027, so the countdown never runs out of road.
Around the same time
These fall within a fortnight of Giving Tuesday, which is useful if you are planning around the date rather than only checking it.
