About
This club meeting will be the very first one where we make a grant to a nonprofit/s from our giving circle!
13 Army members have already joined the giving circle, with donations totaling $6,533.
That means that we'll be able to grant at least $1,863 at this quarterly giving circle meeting, but it could be up to $5k by the time of the meeting.
We hopefully will consider applications from 3 nonprofits and then vote on whom to grant it too, or how to split it among 2-3 of them.
Everyone gets an equal vote, no matter if you give $10/mo or $25k!
If you haven't joined the giving circle yet, consider doing so here.
The philanthropy Stand Together is offering us some exciting challenge grants including $3k if we recruit 25 giving circle members, $12k if we recruit 100, and $25k if we recruit the most members (at least 200) out of the 6 ANF clubs across the country by April 7th!
If you'd be open to sharing the giving circle with your network, here's a post with some template language in case helpful.
Also, if there's nonprofits you love that you think should make a grant application to the giving circle, please share this link with them.
At the beginning of the meeting, we'll also spend upwards of 15 minutes discussing upcoming club plans and seek everyone's ideas to help shape them! So please come to the meeting even if you aren't a member of the giving circle.
The meeting will be in Circle and Square's sweet brewhouse room (same one as the kickoff), but we might pivot to the patio if the weather is nice!
