Amplifier Giving

Give Better. Give Together. Amplifier builds and sustains giving circles inspired by Jewish values. Giving circles are groups that join together, pool their charitable donations, and decide how to give them away. Our global network is close to 100 giving circles strong, and includes more than 2,000 people who grant millions of dollars every year. Amplifier’s offerings include: Pop-up Giving Circle: Get a taste for the giving circle experience in 90 minutes through an interactive, fun, social event.
