Turkish Philanthropy Funds’ Giving Circles are opportunities for community members to join together to pool their dollars to make a greater impact in areas they are passionate about.
Giving circles have memberships, their own activities and events, and make grants as a group. As a result, their collective impact is far greater than anyone member could achieve alone, and their relationships with specific charities create a deeper level of involvement for donors and the nonprofits they support.
Community is at the center of our beliefs, Giving Circles enable us to harness our community’s resources collectively, build awareness of social needs, and inspire and foster the spirit of individual giving.
