Our Approach

Giving Circles
Giving circles are at the heart of CIN’s membership, equipping members with resources to organize and strengthen their circles, coordinate collective giving, and engage in meaningful dialogue about the future of philanthropy and legacy-building.
Individual Membership
Individual Members are everyday philanthropists who contribute their skills, resources, and passion for change—independent of a giving circle. Many Individual Members are inspired to launch new circles or amplify their impact within their communities.
Institutional Membership
CIN offers private and community foundations a unique forum, convening leaders at the intersection of community and institutional giving, providing space to explore new models, build partnerships, and embrace the power of collective philanthropy for greater impact.
