The Circle
Donor affinity group for Adults 50 years and older
Creating a legacy of a stronger community for Dallas’ children.
At Community Partners of Dallas, we exist to provide what abused children urgently need today to thrive tomorrow.
Similarly, our agency seeks to engage our supporters during every chapter of life. This commitment to offering something for everyone is exactly why we created The Circle. Our new affinity group for adults over the age of 50, The Circle provides an opportunity for like-hearted supporters of CPD to connect and find community with one another. The time commitment is as little or as much as you want it to be.
Dallas is the thriving city it is today because of our philanthropic leaders’ steadfast commitment to our beloved city, which is why we invite you to become a founding member of The Circle.
