HOST A GIVING CIRCLE; CHANGE A WOMAN’S LIFE
What's a giving circle?
Giving Circles can take many forms. Previous giving circle leaders have hosted ice cream
socials and afternoon teas in their homes.
They have held gatherings in church rooms
and organized presentations at their local
Rotary Clubs and other service organizations.
The point is for you and your guests to have fun and feel comfortable. The downloadable resources
below are available to make the process
easy for you.
It is your energy and
passion to change one woman’s life
that will make an impact on your guests.
What you’ll
need:
• A willing group of people (who will
bring their checkbooks)
• A container to collect checks
and donation forms
• A DVD player for the 15-minute documentary film about fistula (optional)
• A digital camera to document your party and share the pictures with One By One (optional)
• Food and drink
Tell us
your story
Please write in and tell us about your giving
circle experience. If you host a giving
circle event, please take pictures and send
them to us at info@fightfistula.org so we can post them in our developing
section that highlights giving circle leaders
and their events.
We can't wait!

Below are a list of items intended to help simplify the process for you and your guests.
