About Event

Facilitated by: Nadia Kist, Director of Africa Partnerships

Session Overview

What happens when we set aside roles, titles, and organizational boundaries—and simply show up for each other as people?

The Generosity Circle is an intimate, human-centered gathering designed to foster radical openness, peer support, and meaningful connection. In this facilitated experience, participants sit in small groups of five, and each person has the opportunity to name a need—something they are seeking, wrestling with, or hoping to find.

Rather than offering advice, fellow participants respond with offers of help, partnership, or connection, drawing from their own networks, experience, or lived wisdom.

This is not a panel, not a pitch, and not about what you’ve achieved—it’s about showing up authentically and discovering how generosity and vulnerability can spark lasting relationships and tangible support.

What to Expect

  • facilitated, hour-long gathering focused on authentic conversation and peer exchange

  • Small group format (tables of five) to ensure depth and trust

  • A chance to give and receive—everyone names a need, everyone has something to offer

  • Real-time connections that often spark ongoing collaborations, support, and thought partnership

Why You Should Join

Whether you're leading an organization, launching a project, or simply looking for connection, this space reminds us:

  • We all have needs

  • We all have resources

  • We are more generous—and more connected—than we think

Join us to experience the power of shared humanity and intentional generosity.

 Space is limited to ensure depth of engagement. RSVP to join a circle.
