Giving Connect is a service that supports donors to build a strategic framework to guide their impact. This can help donors be clear about their vision for impact and make decisions that align to it.

The first step in the service is to understand why you're here - what motivates you and what impact you want to create. This will help you understand your giving context and help you articulate your philanthropic vision.

We will show you a brief presentation on the periodic table of philanthropy, and then guide you through a couple of questions.

The whole experience should take about 10 - 15 minutes to finish, however, you might need some extra time to think a little more deeply about your philanthropic motivations and expectations. After you complete the online component individually, you will be sent a Giving Connect Impact Map.

Your Impact Map seeks to provide insight on your giving values, focus and approach. It is an important first step in formulating a comprehensive giving strategy, which will empower you to identify and evaluate philanthropic partnerships aligned to your giving purpose.

For more information on conducting a giving strategy, please contact us.

 

Your information and its use
Your information will only be accessed by accredited Giving Connect facilitators. It will be used for the purpose of understanding your intended impact and tailoring the Giving Strategy workshop, as well as understanding any themes that will help us improve the ways we support strategic giving.

Often donors begin philanthropy with a particular interest or purpose in mind, or a change they would like to make through their philanthropy.

The following presentation will provide some useful information about understanding your own approach to philanthropy.

In the next 5 minutes you’ll learn a bit about the science and art of giving!

 

Now you’ve learned a little bit more about Giving, it is important to think about how you align your values with the approach that resonates with the desired impact you hope to achieve, and what you'd like to focus your giving on.

There are three important components of your impact, as shown below. We'll now ask you a few questions about each. Your responses help inform your Giving Impact Map.
