Did you know that collective giving is the fastest form of philanthropy in the U.S.? This is a fun, democratic and impactful model that involves individuals pooling their resources, knowledge, and networks. The goal? To support causes chosen by the group, build community connections, and learn!
Join us on Tuesday, November 12 at 5:30 PM for CircleUp Nashville for an inspiring and engaging event that explores the dynamic world of collective giving in the Southern United States. Building on Philanthropy Southeast Annual Meeting theme, Leading Lights: Connection, Community & Courage, the event will bring together visionaries, change-makers, and community leaders to showcase the incredible impact of giving circles in our region as we embrace shared goals, and work together toward a brighter future for the South.
