The Giving Circle of Alexandria
The Giving Circle is a diverse group of women who are invested and engaged in their community. They believe that confronting the City’s high priority issues collectively and strategically is the best means to inspire social change. With an annual matching grant of $25,000, ACT has helped The Giving Circle increase their membership and impact around early childhood education. In 2009, ACT and The Giving Circle co-invested in a city-wide playgroup initiative to expand a collaborative playgroup model around the City.

Their members work with community leaders and experts to help address the needs of the community on a daily basis. The Giving Circle members gain understanding on how to break down the barriers standing in the way of a child's success and invest in effective programs. By working with nonprofit organizations, the Giving Circle facilitates the establishment of new programs that reach children and families who had not been reached previously.
