Join New Yorkers for Reproductive Rights
Fight for women's equality by supporting nonprofits that are addressing fighting for reproductive rights. By joining our giving circle, you’ll be participating in the collective giving community in NYC who are advocating for gender equality including access to reproductive healthcare. We will come together with our group members each quarter to network, learn, and donate together.
“Over the past year, we have seen women's reproductive rights under attack. Joining this group and supporting a woman's right to choose is something I feel passionately about.”
Allison Walsh, New Yorkers for Reproductive Rights
“I'd like to find meaningful ways to contribute to protecting reproductive rights. This seems like a good way do donate money and know that it's going to the best possible resources for that cause.”
Rachel Leffel, New Yorkers for Reproductive Rights
“There’s such a good feeling at the end of the meeting, a feeling like ‘We did this for our community tonight.’ It’s such a warm feeling. And it’s even better the bigger the group is.”
Claire Roubal - 100 Women Who Care of the Treasure Coast
“Grapevine and its network of grantmakers have been instrumental in connecting our giving circle with high quality nonprofits in line with our values.”
Chris Chan, Co-founder of VocalMinority
“Together, we can make a difference”
Lisa LaTrovato - Founder and President
“My giving circle group helped to have people in my center of influence to see me in a different light. I’m not just a successful realtor, I’m a giver. A supporter of my community.”

Members make their quarterly contribution.
2. Nomination
If a member has made a contribution, they can then nominate a nonprofit for consideration by adding their nomination on the post on the Grapevine page. The nomination should align with the focus outlined by your group.
3. Selection
After all the nominations are submitted, we’ll randomly select three members' nominations.
4. Meeting
Each quarter we’ll hold a virtual or in-person networking event for one hour. At the quarterly event, the three members’ nominations that were selected will be presented. They will have five minutes to present their nonprofit and then five minutes for Q&A from members. We’ll have time for networking and connection at the beginning and end of the event.
5. Voting
After all the presentations are complete, every member who has made their contribution will be eligible to vote. The nonprofit with the most votes will be rewarded with the funds.
