Giving Circles - growing giving together in the UK

Join Bath Women's Fund on Zoom to learn about Giving Circles, a growing global movement that is changing philanthropy with more than 2,500 active circles around the world giving intentionally and thoughtfully.

A Giving Circle brings together a group of people with shared values to achieve a greater impact collectively. Join us for this webinar to hear about:

• the Giving Circle collective giving model and benefits
• research into Giving Circles and how they can grow giving in communities
• our journey in setting up Bath Women's Fund as a new Giving Circle, bringing together local women to connect with our community and give £77,500 to thirteen groups since 2020
• how you can set up your own Giving Circle and the support available
