UFDC Giving Tuesday 2025
"Operation Open Arms"
Event Date: December 2, 2025
Join us for UFDC's Giving Tuesday 2025 campaign as we embark on an exciting membership initiative for our organization!
About the "Operation Open Arms" Initiative
This groundbreaking initiative will create and resource a new fund dedicated exclusively to membership outreach. There is currently no such fund at UFDC. "Operation Open Arms" will enable the Membership Committee to supercharge their efforts to attract, retain, and celebrate members across a broad spectrum of demographics and doll collecting interests—particularly reaching the next generation of doll enthusiasts all around the world while honoring our long-time members.
Your support will empower us to:
- Create eye-catching, professional flyers and brochures to share the UFDC story for local clubs, and at regional, national, and international doll events
- Equip our Regional Directors and Club Presidents with engaging, consistent recruitment materials to answer questions and hand out at membership tables at shows and events
- Establish, grow, and elevate UFDC Social Media channels including Instagram, Reddit, YouTube, and Facebook
- Offer prizes for membership drives and launch a meaningful program to celebrate our long-time members
- Produce engaging videos for our website and social media, including topics such as "Who We Are," "Our History," "How to Find a Club," and "Your Guide to Convention" to spread the word about UFDC
