Emory Impact Circles advance the causes of affinity groups through the power of collective philanthropic giving. Projects initiated by Emory staff, faculty, and students will transform the lives of the people in these groups and beyond. Funding these breakthrough initiatives relies on the generosity of donors at all levels. Every gift matters as the impact circles work together to pave new paths.

Through a donor-guided grant-making process, funds support philanthropic priorities across the university that advance the causes important to each Emory Impact Circle. To date, over 20 grants have been awarded. For example, funding has been used for the "Black Girl Processing Space" project to help support crossover events with other organizations across Emory, "Project UPLIFT" to uplift Marginalized Mothers and Individuals student organization, and the "Promoting Equitable Access to Global Education" project to assist Black students participating in global education.
