Social Giving Club

Established in 2016, the Social Giving Club is a collaborative giving circle created for those who believe in the power of collective impact. Members select one grantee each year for a collective $25,000 grant. As of 2020, over $100,000 has been awarded.

Because of pandemic restrictions on in-person gatherings, the Social Giving Club hosted their annual Grant Night virtually. Grant Night featured live presentations while members enjoyed a curated box of New Mexico treats. Members voted to award this year’s grant to Saranam, an innovative program that takes a unique two-generational approach to guiding families out of homelessness and poverty so that they can realize their potential of more positive futures.
