With the power of giving, GivingTuesday inspires communities around the world to make a positive impact. In this regard, HHRD responds to the needs of breadwinners, who are primarily responsible for providing for their families. 26 Skills Development Centers (SDCs) are spread across 10 countries, providing training ranging from computer training to embroidery. As part of its mission to celebrate generosity and encourage philanthropy throughout the world, HHRD aims to harness the collective power of its donors and their communities.

The world of employment is becoming more and more accessible with skill development. Our global beneficiaries will be empowered and their futures secured by providing them with essential skills for employment, respectable work, and entrepreneurship, says SDLP lead Gyasi Mckinzie. GivingTuesday encourages good deeds by encouraging people to give to charity. Over the past nine years, this idea has grown into a global movement that has encouraged hundreds of millions of people to give, collaborate, and celebrate generosity.
