Changing the perception of philanthropy. A giving circle is a cultural and historical way of like-minded people coming together and collectively giving their time, talent, and treasure to positively impact their community. The model of working together as philanthropists led to the establishment of a charitable fund held at The Denver Foundation which will allow us - as Latinas - to pool our reso
urces, harness our talent and invest with renewed purpose and meaning in our own community. LatinasGive! Values & Agreements
