The holiday season is a time to generously share with others

December 03, 2024

Today is GivingTuesday

GivingTuesday is a global movement that takes place annually on the Tuesday after Thanksgiving. It's a day dedicated to celebrating generosity and encouraging people to support charitable causes. It serves as a reminder that amidst the hustle and bustle of the holiday season, we have the power to make a difference in the lives of others.

The holiday season is a time to count our blessings, generously share with others, reflect on the year’s accomplishments, and plan for the year ahead. For those of us that work in public health, we have much to be thankful for. Public health professionals across Illinois have worked tirelessly this past year to keep our residents safe from illness and disease, ensure our communities have access to clean water and air, and help our neighborhoods thrive and prosper.   

The year ahead is likely to bring both new challenges and opportunities for public health in Illinois. In 2025, the Illinois Public Health Association (IPHA) will continue to advance the work of public health for all Illinois communities. We will lead public health advocacy efforts, workforce development, professional education, public health programming, and more. In short, we will continue to be the voice for public health in Illinois.

To continue our success, we need your help and support. On this GivingTuesday, we ask that you assist our public health efforts across Illinois with a generous donation. We cannot face the challenges and opportunities ahead without adequate funding to advance our efforts. So please, make an investment in your profession, and in protecting the health of our communities by donating to IPHA.

You can make a one-time donation or establish a monthly donation by clicking here.  All donations, large and small, will help protect and promote public health in Illinois.

Thank you for your kindness and generosity, and for the passion and dedication to protecting the health and wellbeing of all Illinoisans.
