Mission Statement
Philanos’ mission is to inspire women’s philanthropic leadership and to equip and strengthen collective giving organizations through education and collaboration that promotes informed, impactful grant making in communities.
About This Cause
Unquestionably, collectiving giving groups or giving circles are changing the face of philanthropy. 70% of U.S. giving circles are majority female. According to the 2016 Landscape of Giving Circles/Collective Giving Groups study in the US, the amount of money awarded by giving circles has tripled over the last decade, with an estimated $1.29+ billion being granted. Philanos, a national network of 90 women’s giving circles, serves to support the growth and sustainability of these circles that enrich the communities in which they are located and educate women to become informed community members and philanthropists. The 90 giving circles in the Philanos network have cumulatively invested $204.5 million in their local communities, with $19.4 million in the most recent grant cycle alone.
