Giving Tuesday

29 November 2022

Let’s do something amazing on 29 November. Giving Tuesday is just around the corner, and this year, we are thrilled to announce that we’re one of the thousands of organisations officially taking part to help fundraise for our climate literacy project and member support, as well as promote our volunteering opportunities.

We already appreciate your generosity as a member of RMetS, and we don’t expect anything in return. However, if you would like to consider a donation of any amount, this is just a snapshot of what your money could help us achieve:

We have ambitious plans to ensure every student can leave school with a basic understanding of climate change. We’re working to equip students to engage better with the world around them and prepare them for the green careers of the future. You can help us too.

Right now, we have an opportunity for the Royal Meteorological Society to build on its existing work in this area to achieve significant results and provide the support schools need in leveraging changes and developing essential resources.

Donations also help us support our members with grants and funding to support career advancement and valuable contributions to the advancement of science through our Legacies Fund and Carers Fund.

We appreciate that it may not always be possible to give money in these difficult times, but we would also like you to know how valuable your time and expertise are to us as a volunteer. Whether being part of a committee, or editorial board, as a speaker, a mentor or helping us promote the benefits of membership, every single action you take makes a huge difference.

Giving Tuesday is a day when people and organisations from all over the world come together to support the causes and communities that mean so much to us all. The campaign began in America in 2012 as a way to give back after the well-known shopping days of Black Friday and Cyber Monday. The campaign is coordinated in the UK by the Chartered Institute of Fundraising.

From everyone here at the Royal Meteorological Society, thank you for your continuing support on Giving Tuesday and every other day. Since Giving Tuesday is all about the power of social media and collaboration, we would love it if you could share how you are supporting us on your own social media channels. Don’t forget to tag us and @GivingTuesdayUK and use the hashtags #GivingTuesday. Together we can make generosity go viral.
