Join us on May 28th at 2 PM ET for our next Home Conversations ✨

This month, we’re grounding our conversation in Pillar 2: Wisdom — the knowledge we carry through lived experience, community leadership, and navigating systems that were never designed with us in mind.

Too often, the lessons we learn building institutions, protecting our communities, moving resources, and sustaining networks of care are treated as informal instead of expert knowledge.

At Giving Gap, we believe this wisdom deserves to be surfaced, shared, and passed on intentionally.

We’re also excited to welcome Renée Joslyn, Executive Director of , as our guest speaker. Renée will share her expertise on giving circles, collective giving traditions, and why these practices have long been pivotal within Black communities.

Home Conversations is a space to share what we know and learn from one another.
