Charis Circle

Charis Circle's mission is to foster sustainable feminist communities, work for social justice, and encourage the expression of diverse and marginalized voices. 

At this moment when trans people are under attack right here in Georgia and around the U.S. we have invested even more of our energy and resources in supporting the health and well-being of trans kids, teens, parents, and adults. We host 4 groups each month devoted to trans people in addition to being the South's premier destination for trans authors to celebrate their books. 

Charis is an essential and historic “third space” in Metro Atlanta that asks you to come as you are, share what you wish, and take what you need. We want to help you find movement spaces to join, life resources and support you need, and art to sustain you. We might even help you find friends and romance along the way. 

We are uniquely able to speak and act freely because 80% of our income comes from our community members in increments of $10-$100 at a time. We don’t take money from people who seek to control the kinds of speakers we invite or the popular education programs we create for our community. 

But that means we really need everyone’s support. 

For Give Out Day we are raising a minimum of $5,000 to fund the next month of Charis Circle community programming. Now more than ever we need spaces to strategize, organize, connect, and dream the feminist future we all deserve. Please consider making a gift in honor of a fabulous feminist in your life or in memory of a queer or trans ancestor who shaped the world in the direction of justice. No gift is too small to help in this fight!

Together with our partner, Charis Books and More, we host more than 300 events a year. Most of them are free or donation based and most of them are also accessible online from where ever you live in the world. There's never been a better time to plug into community. Join us today!
