About Giving Tuesday Turning Trauma Into Success

This Giving Tuesday, you have the power to change someone’s life.


On Tuesday, December 2, 2025, Change Me Foundation invites you to be part of something bigger than a donation — something transformational. This year, our goal is to raise $10,000 in 24 hours to support children, families, veterans, and seniors facing trauma, mental health challenges, and barriers to care across Fort Lauderdale, Pompano Beach, unincorporated Broward County, and surrounding communities.

While many celebrate during the holidays, others are silently struggling. Families are facing eviction. Seniors are battling isolation. Young people are processing trauma without anyone to talk to. Caregivers are overwhelmed and don’t know where to turn.


At Change Me Foundation, we believe that trauma does not have to be the end of the story — it can be the beginning of transformation. Your support allows us to walk alongside people when life gets hardest and help them heal, rebuild, and rise.


What Your Giving Supports


 Mental Health & Wellness Support

Workshops, healing circles, and mental health education that teach coping skills, emotional resilience, and self-care for youth, adults, and seniors.


 Case Management & Community Navigation

Families who are lost — struggling with housing, food, healthcare, or trauma — receive one-on-one guidance to access real help and long-term solutions.


 Rites of Passage Mentorship

Empowering youth and young adults with leadership, discipline, personal growth, and emotional healing through guided mentorship and life-skill development.


 Community Outreach & Resource Events

Walk In My Shoes Mental Health 5K, Thanksgiving Meal Drive, Christmas Toy Giveaway, Back-to-School Drives, and Healing Workshops — all offered at no cost to the community.


Why Giving Tuesday Matters


Giving Tuesday is more than a day of generosity — it’s a day for action, healing, and community power.
Your gift tells someone:

  • You are seen.

  • You are not alone.

  • You matter.

Your donation — whether $10 or $1,000 — ensures our programs remain free and accessible to the people who need them most.
