Join the Giving Gap Community Sou Sou Fund
In celebration of Black Philanthropy Month, we’re embracing ancestral traditions and collective care. We’re excited to launch the Giving Gap Community Sou Sou Fund — a campaign rooted in a timeless African and Caribbean tradition of shared financial uplift.
What is a Sou Sou?
A Sou Sou is a communal savings circle where everyone contributes, and the pot is shared equally. It’s built on trust, accountability, and communal uplift, values that have long sustained and empowered our communities.
This August, we’re channeling that same spirit to support nonprofits doing phenomenal work in Georgia.
How It Works:
No competition. No gatekeeping. Just shared abundance.
This is what community-powered philanthropy looks like.
