Giving Gatherings are an opportunity to connect with the Children Rising community and invest in a child’s future.
Giving Gatherings are a series of three small, intimate events hosted in the homes of Children Rising supporters throughout Oakland and the East Bay. These two-hour gatherings include delicious food, engaging conversation, and inspiring stories about our kids. Help us engage more support and resources to expand the “Circle of Care” to more children in Oakland!



Children Rising is proud to invite you to sponsor our Giving Gatherings.
Children need all of us—especially now.
Your sponsorship helps surround Oakland children with the Circle of Care they need to thrive: one-on-one tutoring, family coaching, and learning tools that strengthen reading and math skills at school and at home. By sponsoring Giving Gatherings, you help provide children with a fairer chance to grow in confidence, succeed academically, and rise to their God-given potential.
