DONATIONS FROM DONOR ADVISED FUNDS AND LOOKTHROUGH SERIES

We haven’t done a program like this before. So this conversation is a bit of an experiment for us. And so that is a time when we were thinking it’d be a good time to talk more about giving circles and what’s out there, how people are engaging and support folks who are interested in creating giving circles. And also that this is a time when a lot of people are looking for ways to support organizing and to plug in and to get reconnected and reconnected to communities that we may feel disconnected to through isolation right now. There’s many lineages of collective giving and community over time and that this is so there’s a lot of shared wisdom and knowledge around giving circles in our communities. And also giving circles are just not a new concept. And, you know, for this program in particular, we you know, basically we know that a lot of people in our circles, circles, little giving circle joke. And then also we’ll be doing another one on Decolonizing Fundraising in a couple weeks. There’s a recording on our website, in case you’re curious to know more. So that’s what we’re up to the last couple weeks ago, we had the North Star Fund Explained program.

And really the purpose of this series for us is to try to take some of the big ideas and concepts floating around and get really concrete and specific about how we do things at North Star Fund and also how you can be engaging. This program is the second one in North Star Fund’s Let Us Explain series that we’ve been doing this fall. And I’ll be playing host and moderator tonight for this program.
