Seattle NowGen Giving Circle

Stepping Up To Philanthropic Leadership

The Seattle NowGen Giving Circle is a philanthropic initiative that develops young adult community leaders. Members pool their resources and give philanthropically through a Jewish lens.

With Federation staff guidance, Seattle NowGen Giving Circle members  develop leadership skills, learn about Jewish giving, exercise collaboration, and practice consensus-building. Young donors flex their collective philanthropic muscles and make community connections. When we give together, we multiply the impact of our giving.

Thank you for your interest in the Seattle NowGen Giving Circle. At this time, the group is on hold while we reflect on plans for its future. We appreciate your patience as we evaluate the demand for this initiative and assess how we can continue to make a meaningful impact on our community. While we are not currently accepting grant applications, we encourage organizations to stay connected and engage with us in the future. If you are passionate about collective giving and would like to stay informed about this initiative and any updates on its potential resumption, please reach out to:

We value your interest and will keep you updated on any future developments.
