The Children’s Hospital at Erlanger will participate in the local Giving Tuesday movement on Tuesday, Nov. 29.
Giving Tuesday is a national day of giving back to nonprofit organizations. It originated as a day of doing good deeds for charity after Black Friday, Small Business Saturday and Cyber Monday.
By texting the word “build” to 243725 on Giving Tuesday, Children’s Hospital will benefit from donations for the Believe Campaign to build a new hospital.
Donors can also make a contribution at any time to the Believe Campaign by visiting

Phase one of the Children’s Hospital consists of a 90,000 square-foot outpatient center. Upon completion, the new Children’s Hospital will serve more than one million children in the Chattanooga region, offering 21 pediatric sub-specialties affiliated with the University of Tennessee College of Medicine.
Additionally, Chili’s on Market Street will donate 10 percent of all purchases on Monday, Nov. 28 to the Believe Campaign for #GivingTuesday. Customers must specify they would like their purchase to benefit Children’s Hospital at Erlanger.
Last year, Chattanooga officials launched the first #CHAgives campaign to encourage members of the Chattanooga community to participate in the national #GivingTuesday movement. In just 24 hours, more than $100,000 was raised benefitting Chattanooga’s nonprofit community.
