How a group works

Typically a group consists of a minimum of 6 members.
Groups are formed in 2 ways. You could set up one with friends or family, or we will add you to a group we set up ourselves.
Members choose a group name to identify themselves from other groups.
The group assigns a leader who acts as a coordinator for group members.
Groups decide how long they want to be involved in the collective but we recommend a minimum of 1 year.
Based on the group’s passions, we provide at least 2 project proposals for the group’s consideration.
Each person commits to what they can contribute financially. The group agrees to a joint target (minimum £2,500 per year).
We provide project reports and other opportunities for the members to connect deeply with their project and causes.

What do existing group members say?

[Collective giving] has really enriched my giving. It's really impacted my perspective and my global focus. It's made the whole process of giving and generosity so much more meaningful and enriching.

Rowan

It's been amazingly energising to spend time with other people who are passionate about the same things and want to pray for the same projects. I thought when we started it was about me committing to give money to something, but actually we are a team, so the best thing has been seeing that team grow in relationship together.
