Giving Tuesday is a global philanthropic organization dedicated to driving positive social change by encouraging individuals, families, and organizations to participate in public welfare activities. Nowadays, Giving Tuesday has expanded to over 150 countries, with more than 1,000 universities in the United States alone taking part. It focuses not only on social welfare but also emphasizes the profound impact of individual actions on social progress.
In 2024, the GivingTuesday China Youth Philanthropic Video Project, “Sharing My Passion,” was launched. It aims to embed a sense of social responsibility and the seeds of philanthropy into children’s growth journey, allowing children to empower other children, and children to inspire other children.” I shared my equestrian learning experiences and reflections, hoping to inspire and resonate with more people through my story, bringing positive energy to those around me. As I said in the video:
“When you achieve a result or reach a summit on your path of growth, you should look back at the efforts you made. You should remember both the process and the original intention that brought you into this field. This can help you go further on this path and continue moving forward on the right track…”
Indeed, philanthropy is not only about donating money or supplies, it can also be about giving time, experience, and kindness. When we share our experiences, we are not only helping others but also rediscovering our own inner values. Through the efforts of those engaged in chatiry and community work, we can shape a more harmonious, humane, and caring society.
