What is the Women’s Giving Circle?
The Women’s Giving Circle is an initiative dedicated to bringing together a select group of Catholic women committed to giving $1,100 (over 40) or $600 (40 and under) for the purpose of raising awareness and funds for nonprofit ministries in the Archdiocese of New Orleans. Designed as a giving circle, this group will leverage a pooled fund to have greater philanthropic impact on the organizations they select.

How Does the
Giving Circle Work?During an annual six-week period (typically March – April), Women’s Giving Circle members will gather to:
-
Learn about effective philanthropy (impact of grant size on an organization, understanding unrestricted versus restricted gifts); decide the number/amount of grants to be made.
-
Hear from selected organizations about their life-giving missions.
-
Vote on grant recipients.
-
Celebrate and award grants!
In the fall, members will have the chance to tour organizations receiving grants and learn the impact of their combined philanthropy.

Why A Women's Giving Circle?
The Women’s Giving Circle brings together Catholic women from diverse backgrounds with one common goal: To bring about change through the power of grants that transform lives and build the body of Christ.
Throughout the year, we will gather to learn about organizations and their needs, and decide together which projects to fund. There will also be opportunities to share ideas, serve with one another and, of course, plenty of time to socialize.
