About the Incubator
Thank you for applying to Amplifier's Giving Circle Incubator! You are one step closer to launching a meaningful collective giving community. The Giving Circle Incubator is an eight-month virtual training that will lead you through designing and launching a brand new giving circle. The application will take about 15-20 minutes to complete. See a PDF of the full application here. 
 
All applications are due by Friday, October 20 at 5pm ET.

A robust feedback loop is critical to the success of our work together. If selected to participate in the Incubator, you are expected to:
  • Attend 8-10 training webinars, one every few weeks; the opening webinar is November 1st at 12PM EST/9am PST. 
  • Participate in monthly check-in calls with your coach throughout the eight months of the program.
  • Be responsive to Amplifier staff, participate in periodic check-in calls, and complete feedback surveys.
Cost

  • Giving circles run by individuals not affiliated with organizations: $100
  • Giving circles run by professionals, as part of an organization with an annual budget of less than $5 million: $375
  • Giving circles run by professionals, as part of an organization with an annual budget of $5 million or more: $750
