Community Investment Network

The Community Investment Network inspires, connects and strengthens African Americans and communities of color to leverage their collective resources and create the change THEY wish to see.

CIN is a national network of giving circles and everyday philanthropists who focus on the supply side of philanthropy. We work to demystify philanthropy for communities of color, by teaching people to give strategically and effectively.

Our members give our time, talent, treasure and testimonials to be the change we wish to see. Giving circles are a spring board for new, community-led ideas and innovations. Giving circles build trust, accountability and transparency. Giving circles provide a setting for us to have frank conversations about money, and honest conversations about race.
