What is GivingTuesday?

Every year, our Club is challenged with raising money to fund our operations. Nearly 60% of the income we raise comes directly from our community - individuals, businesses, churches, and our special events and fundraisers. In 2016, we launched a new fundraising campaign centered around the worldwide GivingTuesday movement. The GivingTuesday movement comes after Black Friday and Cyber Monday and challenges people around the world to give back to others. In one day, nonprofits around the world challenge their supporters to raise as much as they can in 24 hours on GivingTuesday.

We invite local businesses to join us as **GivingTuesday Business Partners** with gifts starting at $2,000. As a GivingTuesday Business Partner, you’ll join other community leaders who are committed to empowering youth and building brighter futures in Transylvania County — making a powerful, direct impact on our ability to reach our GivingTuesday goal.

How Does the Boys & Girls Club Support Local Businesses?

We currently serve over 280 Club members daily, providing a space intentionally created for learning, growth, and connection.

By providing reliable, affordable childcare, The Cindy Platt Boys & Girls Club of Transylvania County empowers parents and guardians to work full-time with peace of mind, knowing their children are safe, engaged, and well cared for after school, during school breaks, and throughout the summer.

Our support for working families helps strengthen the local workforce and, in turn, the businesses that rely on them every day.
