Puerto Rico will take part in GivingTuesday for the ninth consecutive year, with the local #GivingTuesdayPR initiative launching 'Juega con Propósito' for the 2026 edition, a fundraising effort built around competitions and challenges. The movement’s day is Tuesday, December 1, and nonprofit organizations interested in receiving support can already register to participate. 'Juega con Propósito' consists of a series of competitions and challenges featuring well-known figures, each representing a cause, backed by a donation platform where the public can support their favorite participants with financial contributions.
Through JuegaConPropósito.com, people can check event schedules, donate to participating organizations and follow the competitions, and can also create their own challenges with family and friends to raise funds. 'Ya en nuestro noveno año continuamos trabajando con gran entusiasmo y motivación... Nos motiva saber que la generosidad siempre gana,' said René S. Ronda, local leader of GivingTuesday Puerto Rico.
In previous editions, #GivingTuesdayPR has driven the raising of millions of dollars for hundreds of nonprofit organizations in Puerto Rico. So far more than 50 entities have registered for the 2026 edition, working on causes related to health, culture, education, the environment, economic development, animal protection, social services and the arts, among other areas. Registration runs through linktr.ee/givingtuesday.pr until November 27.
GivingTuesday began as an alternative to Black Friday’s commercial focus and is held each year on the Tuesday after Thanksgiving, promoting generosity through donations, items, materials and volunteer work.
