Reciprocity Ring
2026-04-29 17:30 - 19:00 | Byrd Barr Place, 722 18th Avenue, Seattle, WA, 98122, United States
The world feels heavy right now. But when we practice reciprocity—sharing our needs and resources—we realize just how rich we really are. SVP is hosting a series of Reciprocity Rings for the SVP community, facilitated by Dr. Julie Pham, where we’ll connect, practice vulnerability, and strengthen our community. People are invited to make Asks and Offers related to Time, Treasure, Talent, and Ties.
This is a safe place for you to make “asks” like: “I need a place for a solo writing retreat in the Seattle area for a few nights next summer,” “A referral for an experienced cat-sitter,” and “Feedback on my nonprofit’s strategic plan this winter.”
If you’re not sure of what you can offer, here are some examples: “Advice on accounting for non-profits,” “Tips on how to organize your Email inbox,” and “recommendations on traditional Korean restaurants in Seattle.”
What to Expect at Each Session
