#GivingTuesday is a popular international day of giving that brings the world together for good causes. As a counter to the consumerism of Black Friday and Cyber Monday, Giving Tuesday has become a generous way to kick off the Christmas season!

This is the first year that First Baptist will be participating in Giving Tuesday and we need you for our initiative to be successful. Save the date and keep an eye out for our Giving Tuesdays posts. Please share them with your friends and tell why our church is important to you. If you're ready to give now, we won't stop you!

Please consider donating any amount to First Baptist of White Plains. Every dollar matters, but here are some ways your money can be used for the betterment of our community:

• $20 covers Communion costs for a month
• $50 buys enough supplies for our monthly Dinner Church Services (starting in 2020)
• $100 covers the annual costs for a family of four participating in our Food Co-op
• $500 helps us to expand our community gardening network
• $750 will pay for all the supplies for our third annual VBS, which is a free, week-long Bible camp for over 80 children in our community
• $1000 pays for a one-year scholarship for one of our eligible youth attending an accredited college
