Spring 2024 MA Female Friends Giving Circle Now Accepting New Members

The MA Female Friends Giving Circle (MFFGC) is delighted to announce the opening of its Spring 2024 Giving Circle in Massachusetts. Following a successful Inaugural Giving Circle in Fall 2023, MFFGC is poised to achieve its mission of making a sustainable impact in our Massachusetts communities.

Our Fall 2023 cycle brought together a group of 43 passionate and dedicated women from 27 communities across the state in support of under-served women and families in Massachusetts. Through a collaborative process, we awarded $5,400 to The Children's Room, a nonprofit organization based in Arlington dedicated to providing support for grieving children, teens, and families. Our $5,400 donation provided services for a family for an entire year.

MFFGC operates on a semi-annual schedule, making donations in the Spring and Fall of each year. Each member of the giving circle contributes $100 per cycle, and through the power of collective giving, we aim to make a significant and meaningful impact on the lives of those in need.

"Our commitment to support women and families facing difficult times within our own community is at the heart of what we do. Together, we help to overcome challenges faced by so many of our neighbors." said Eileen Samels, Founding Member and Coordinator of the MFFGC. “Giving Circles are a great way to come together, learn about community issues, and be a part of the solution in a tangible way.”

MFFGC invites new members to join this philanthropic movement. The Spring 2024 giving cycle begins with new member registrations (sign up online at https://bit.ly/MFFGCSign-Up) and culminates with our ‘Learn & Vote’ member gathering (in-person or virtual) where we learn about and discuss the nominated organizations, then cast our votes for the recipient of our collective donation. The Spring 2024 ‘Learn & Vote’ gathering will be held on April 28th. Open to women from all walks of life in Massachusetts, MFFGC members collectively make a positive difference in the lives of under-served women and families.
