ABOUT GIVING TUESDAY

#GivingTuesday is a global day of giving. Observed on the Tuesday following Thanksgiving (in the U.S.) right along with the widely recognized shopping events Black Friday and Cyber Monday, #GivingTuesday kicks off the charitable season, when many focus on their holiday and end-of-year giving.

At Matrix Human Services #GivingTuesday celebrates our year-long focus on giving our community the tools and resources needed to move from poverty to lives of self sufficiency, stability and hope.

We encourage you – Commit to giving back today!

When Marisela’s three-year-old son Erick was diagnosed with autism, she couldn’t believe it. While Marisela knew Erick had speech issues and wasn’t potty-trained like other children his age, he didn’t act like children she knew who had autism.

After understanding Erick’s autism was on the milder end of the spectrum, her disbelief quickly became determination and she focused on getting her son the support he would need to succeed. Erick’s doctor recommended Head Start. Read More…

Because of Matrix wrap-around services that support not just children, but the entire family, Abigail was able to work with a Family Advocate and change her family\’s future. Read More…

Samuel knew his old refrigerator wouldn’t last much longer, but with a fixed income he didn’t have finances to fix or replace it. As he shifted food from the defective refrigerator cabinet to the partially working freezer, eventually both gave out. Samuel resorted to using coolers for his perishable foods.

Seeking help, he turned to neighbors and local churches for advice. Many said the same thing, “Go to Matrix, they’ll know how to help you.” Read more…
