Workshops
Adults explore their own story of giving and gain the tools to help the kids in their lives explore theirs.
Practical tools for involving kids in giving, at school and at home.
Our workshops introduce adults to the frameworks The Giving Square uses with children.
Participants start with their own experience of giving, then leave with tools and resources to involve kids in giving and community life, whether in a classroom, a family, or a community group.
