100 WHO CARE ALLIANCE PRESENTS

The Virtual Book Club & Author Talk Series

Conversations that inspire, deepen, and strengthen the way we give — together.

How it Works

The Author Talk Series brings together giving circle leaders and their members for intimate, one-hour virtual conversations with authors whose work speaks directly to the heart of collective philanthropy. Each talk is a chance to go deeper and explore ideas, ask the questions that matter to your circle, and connect with a community of people who share your commitment to doing good, together. These are not large-scale webinars. They are curated, purposeful conversations that are small enough to be real and focused enough to be useful.

Join

Become part of a global community of giving circle leaders and members learning together. Our book club brings together developing circles, established leaders, and engaged members for a shared read that strengthens our movement and deepens our collective impact.

Read

Each season, we choose a book that inspires reflection, connection, and growth within the giving circle movement. Whether you’re launching a new circle, leading an established one, or participating as a member, our selected reads offer fresh perspectives on community, generosity, and shared leadership.

Meet

Join us for live conversations with authors and thought leaders whose work shapes and elevates the world of collective giving. These sessions create space for questions, dialogue, and connection; bringing readers together across circles, regions, and experiences.
