Left Hand Giving Circle

Left Hand Giving Circle (LHGC) is a group of local women committed to improving our community through philanthropic donations and group volunteer projects. When you donate $300 or more you will be invited to LHGC volunteer outreach events, grant review sessions, and social gatherings. More information can be found on Left Hand Giving Circle’s at www.lefthandgivingcircle.org.

Twice a year, we solicit grant applications from nonprofits, review them, and make collaborative decisions on where our donations can be put to the best use. Every member has the opportunity to vote on the winning grant application, and decisions are based on the organization that receives the most votes. The goal is for every member is comfortable with the ultimate grantee, even if the winning nonprofit was not their first choice. After making our decision, we make in person visits to the winning nonprofit to deliver the grant checks, learn more about the organization, meet the leadership team, and tour the facility, if appropriate.

By pooling our resources together, we are able to make a much greater impact in our local community.
