[YEP-DC] Join a Young Philanthropist Giving Circle | Build Your Skills, Change a Life

What is a Giving Circles Project?
Capital Cause involves Young Philanthropists in two types of Giving Circles Projects.  Cause Giving Circles are skills-based projects that connect young professional talent to nonprofits in need of short-term specialized assistance (i.e. website development).  Capital Giving Circles are fundraising-based projects that connect young professionals with one another to raise money to support their favorite cause or nonprofit. Each Giving Circle is a team project, and enables young professionals to work together with like-minded people who believe in doing "good" work to help others! Sign-Up Today

What Giving Circles Projects Have Young Philanthropists Done in the Past?
- One team of 5 Young Philanthropists completed Phase I of Mary Mcleod Bethune's school accreditation process

Am I a Young Philanthropist?
If you are a young professional serious about giving back to communities or causes, then you are a Young Philanthropist.

Do I Get to Choose a Project?

Yes, nearly 40 nonprofits have submitted requests for Young Philanthropists support on skills-based and financial projects!  See below for some (but not all!) opportunities:
- Work with 5 Young Philanthropists to fund summer dance classes for 50 at-risk youth
- Work with 5 Young Philanthropists to fund summer college tour for 100 Ward 7 high-school students
- Create a proposal for DC city govt to increase amount of grocery stores in Ward in order to eliminate food deserts

---And More...

Each project is team-based, meaning you will work with at least 5 other Young Philanthropists to meet team goals.  Feel free to SIGN-UP solo and meet new friends, or invite your friends to participate!
