For April, please join us and the Floret Coalition in donating to Equitable Giving Circle. Equitable Giving Circle is a community of people committed to creating peer-led, community-funded, transformational change. Their work aims to build immediate and increased equity throughout Portland’s BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, and People of Color) communities through a combination of fund development and network building opportunities that center economic equity.

“We value diverse voices. From start to finish.
Everyone. We value the immediate impact of
no strings attached giving. No red tape.
We value transparency, honesty and integrity.
We are here to work toward equity led by diverse
voices. We listen, we learn. We do not bring
outside agendas to this table.”

Currently, EGCs main initiative is feeding BIPOC community members with fresh weekly CSA boxes purchased from local BIPOC Farmers.
