      In this challenging economy, I'm wondering how other circles are managing the loss of members. I'm particularly interested in innovative ways to retain members even if they are financially unable to participate in the circle at this point in time.

        Thank you for this comment as many Giving Circles are facing this same issue.   For some innovative approaches, we recommend that you see the October 2008 Giving Circles Conference summary.  Several topics touched on membership recruitment and retention.  A few ideas for individuals who are unable to participate are to give whatever they can or even have someone "sponsor" their membership, volunteer their time through service projects (instead of donate money), support the Giving Circle in the grant process, come to a community issue "Discovery Day" where people can learn about community issues (participate in the learning process), or participate in a Giving Circle supported book club or other social activity -- just to keep them involved, engaged and interested in the Giving Circle mission.
