No one can tell for certain.
Some think it's to allow them to eat from the treetops, while some think that it's b/c of how the males sort out who's the strongest and fittest during mating season.
Two competing males will stand real close to each other, then swing their heavy, knobbly heads at each others bodies in vicious headbutts to win the fight.

If Lamark and Darwin had debated why giraffes have such long necks how would their explanations differed?
Lamarck would have said that the ancestors of modern-day giraffes had short necks but stretched their necks as they tried to reach leaves in trees; so, their descendants were born with longer necks. Darwin would have said that in a population of ancestral giraffes, some had slightly longer necks than others; the long-necked giraffes were better able to feed on tree leaves and as a result produced more offspring. Over time, the proportion of longnecked giraffes in the population increased.
