What is Grapevine and how does it work?

Grapevine is a platform dedicated to Giving Circles, empowering people to connect, pool donations, and collectively decide which nonprofits and causes to support. It’s more than just a site for collecting donations; it’s a community space for collaborative philanthropy. 

 

Grapevine is used by individuals, small groups, foundations, companies, and nonprofits looking to engage in collaborative giving.

 

Unlike crowdfunding platforms like GoFundMe and Classy, Grapevine focuses on supporting thriving communities of recurring donors, enabling more consistent and impactful philanthropy. This is crowdgranting.

 

Yes, it’s completely free to create an account and start a Giving Circle.
