Pooled Funding

Giving circles are a great way to enable your dollar to go further. So while an individual may not have $50,000 to give to a charity to facilitate a new initiative, they can contribute to the initiative's success with a smaller amount that is pooled and gifted to a selected charity.

Community Engagement and Events

Becoming a member of a giving circle will also enable you to join a community of givers and likeminded peers. You will be invited to an annual fundraising event and evenings throughout the year where you will hear from subject matter experts on various social issues.

Learning and Development

In addition to formal events, you will also be provided with access to a variety of resources and learning opportunities on the topics of philanthropy, global practice in the for-purpose sector and volunteering.
