MIAMI Women empower the world

MIAMI Women empowers women – alumni, faculty, staff and students – to make connections and to support opportunities that mentor, advance and invest in the future of Miami University. There are many ways to get involved. Join the Giving Circle to support the power of collective giving or make a gift at any level through our office of annual giving.

Giving Circle

The MIAMI Women Giving Circle is a collective giving effort that allows participants to combine resources with other members and make a greater impact on the Miami community. The collective power of each member’s annual $1,000 gift creates a large pool of money that funds multiple, vital projects via Hawk Tank.

During this “fast pitch” event, Miami students, faculty and staff who have applied for a grant appear in front of Giving Circle members to present their ideas. Giving Circle members vote on how their collective giving funds should be distributed. Think Shark Tank, where Giving Circle members are the sharks!
