The Giving Circle is Meridian’s signature event, a celebration of participatory philanthropy. Here, generosity becomes a shared act.
Donors and guests alike come together to hear the stories of charities doing extraordinary work, and together decide how the Oracle Fund grants will be shared. The atmosphere is electric, inspiring, and unforgettable.
Three carefully vetted charities each have 7 minutes to pitch their cause.
Donors vote to decide how the evening’s grants are awarded: $30k, $20k, and $10k.
Every charity walks away with funding, ensuring no story goes unheard and no effort unsupported.
Guests who are not yet donors are welcome, it’s the perfect way to be inspired by the power of collective giving.
Impact Dinners bring the Meridian community together in a more intimate setting. Around the table, donors, ambassadors, and supporters hear directly from changemakers, charities, and fellow philanthropists.
