About

We are BWIB4G

…a Grapevine Giving Circle community!  We are a group of Boston, MA-based business women who pool donations and grant them to nonprofits on a quarterly basis. In addition to our "Gather & Grant" events, we offer networking opportunities, philanthropic events, and more!

We believe in the power of women coming together to create positive change in their community.

What is a Giving Circle?

“A Giving Circle is when a group of people aligned to a specific cause, geography or identity, donate a certain amount of money (e.g. $10, $100, $10,000+) periodically (e.g. monthly, quarterly or yearly), pool those funds together and collaboratively decide which nonprofits will receive their collective donation. They then do it all again the next period. Giving Circles connect like-minded people, create greater impact for the causes that members care about, and build an even stronger community in the process. Whether you’re a small group of friends, a block of close-knit neighbors, or a team of professionals rallying around a cause, Grapevine is your philanthropic home for giving back, together.”
