#GivingTuesday offers day for philanthropy, Dec. 1

Daytona State welcomes support for students with #GivingDSCday 

DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. (Nov. 25, 2015) – The holidays proclaim a joy of giving to family and friends – from a day to give thanks (and to feast) to ‘getting deals’ through Black Friday, Small

Business Saturday and CyberMonday. Now, #GivingTuesday offers a global day dedicated to giving back. On Tuesday, Dec. 1, charities, businesses, donors, public institutions and students around the world celebrate generosity and a time to give.

Daytona State College joins in the spirit with its own #GivingDSCday on Dec. 1, inviting one and all to support students in need through gifts of any amount. “We appreciate how busy people can be during the season, and are always thrilled that so many remember to donate to scholarships – or start a named fund – as the year comes to a close,” says DSC Foundation Executive Director Kay Burniston.

In addition, consumers who shop online thru Amazon.com can choose Daytona State College Foundation (DSCF) as their charity of choice and a portion of all sales will be donated back to DSCF. It’s simple. Visit Smile.Amazon.com (same user name and password as used with Amazon.com), choose Daytona State College Foundation and your purchases can bring a percentage back to DSCF.  
To discover other ways to contribute to DSC’s educational mission, visit the Foundation’s website or call (386) 506-3110. Donations also can be made online at Donate.DaytonaState.edu/donate.
