Although this year represents a departure from years past in terms of HOW we are providing funding to innovative ideas in Cleveland, the mission remains the same. 

The Cleveland Colectivo is a Giving Circle with a mission to: strengthen our community through collective investments that identify and nurture innovative projects.

The Cleveland Colectivo, a Cleveland-based “giving circle”, will be hosting “Pitch for Change” on Thursday, February 23rd from 6:00-8:30pm at Shaker Launch House

Do you need a jolt of inspiration? a reminder about the creative minds working hard to build Cleveland? a way to support innovative projects?

In the fall of 2011, members and past grantee recipients of the Cleveland Colectivo came together to reflect on five years of projects and assess the process for giving away money from our small but mighty giving circle. 

In short, we had a purposeful party.

During the course of the celebration, we broke bread together, listened to brief presentations from past grantees, renewed relationships, and voted on whether or not to change our application process after 5 years of using a written application.
