The Giving Circle is a unique and innovative program inspired by a new generation of donors. Each member is an active participant in the community grant-making process. In late winter, organizations are invited to pitch their need to Giving Circle members at an event called Pitch Day. Each member is asked to cast their vote on the causes that speak to them most. Votes are tallied and grant winners are announced. Throughout the year, members have an opportunity to connect with grant recipients during check granting day and site visits. The Catholic Community Foundation Giving Circle is the ONLY Catholic giving circle in Arizona!
