What is a Giving Circle? Then, together, decide how to best use these to impact their community. Our goals? Make a difference in our community at the ground level. Encourage community among ourselves and others. Educate and raise awareness of the needs in our community. Promote volunteerism and philanthropy. Build a network to promote positive change. Our passions? Many have been discussed that are close to our hearts. Some of the top are listed here:
Jessie Rees Foundation
Michelle's Place
Orangewood Childrens Home
OC Rescue Mission
CHOC Hospital
Womens Shelter
Animal Rescue/Shelters
Senior Living Residences and/or hospice
Military/Veterans Affairs
Homeless
Special Olympics
Membership? Membership is open to all individuals who wish to further our mission and our goals through financial support and/or service participation in the projects. Our membership dues are based on the concept of "making a difference every day" which is what we have set out to do. This is why we have set dues at $1 a day, $365 a year. This amount makes the giving real and ensures it makes a difference. (You, of course, are welcome to give more). :-) PLEASE ASK HOW YOU CAN BECOME A MEMBER. We have also established a category for those individuals who wish to contribute monetarily to our cause but wish not to attend meetings and participate in projects. We will recognize these contributors as donors. Their giving is GREATLY appreciated and just as important to our mission. We hope to be able to offer service hours to students in the area to meet their schools requirement of community service. Our goal is to raise awareness and a sense of community. By partnering with young adults we can accomplish this and so much more!
