A game that takes generosity seriously.
The Generosity Roundtable is a card-based learning game for nonprofit teams, and a growing network of the people who play it. One game box gives a host everything they need to run a session. A session takes about half an hour. The conversations it starts tend to last a lot longer.
Register for the July 28 webinar and tell us you're interested in a box. You get early access before the page goes public, with first claim on one of the 500.
Everything a host needs to start a table: the engraved wooden box, the Host Manual, and character tools. Canvas bag included as a thank you gift to all new Hosts!
What people say after one game.
Truly visionary. It makes scenario planning fun while building empathy and the ability to see things from different perspectives. Camaraderie and professional development in one exercise.
This is so needed in a world of the same professional development webinars and courses recycled over and over again.
Playing the game helps bring clarity and focus to specific issues our team faces. A fun and refreshing way to guide strategic conversations.
One box,
infinite possibilities
The full gaming system
Playable at a table of two or two hundred tables, in about half an hour.
The launch title
Your first scenario set, ready out of the box. Two follow-up titles included at no extra cost.
Guest Guides + Host Manual
Get into a game in just a few minutes or explore your whole strategy over multiple sessions.
Lifelong learning license
Hosts-only access to the full catalog of gameplay sessions, host evolutions, and experiments shared across the network. Yours for as long as the game exists.
The public wiki + tools
A free, open gameplay rules wiki plus quizzes and tools anyone can use. Everyone benefits, though it lands deeper once you've actually played.
Guardians of the Game Special Sessions
Learn directly from experts across the nonprofit sector. The trusted network of people who believe generosity, identity, and community building are deeply intertwined.
Think outside of the box when it comes to professional development
You are buying the box. You are joining the start of something bigger.
Everything you just read is live the day your box arrives. The rest grows with the network. As more Hosts run tables, the Library deepens, the public wiki fills out, and new formats arrive, from small dinners to multi-day gatherings. You do not pay again to grow into any of it. Being early is the whole point.
You get to learn alongside some pretty smart people.
Over twenty Guardians have signed on so far: fundraisers, facilitators, community builders, technologists, and advocates with decades of lived experience across the sector. As the table grows, so does what we can learn together.
We're actively recruiting an experts network to cover every topic in the Library of Generosity, alongside nonprofits and foundations already part of the work. This is just a sample of the table we're gathering people around.
You will know a Guardian by the box they carry.
Each Guardian's box is unlike any other. This was our very first test print, and every box in the run is personally wood-branded by Tim Sarrantonio, Chief Designer of the Generosity Roundtable. The one in the photo is his.
A CSR program that actually feels generous.
Gift a box, and a seat in the learning network, to a nonprofit. Pick one you already partner with, or let us play matchmaker with an overlooked or overbooked organization whose mission lines up with your team's values.
No plaque. No press release required. Just a real tool, in the hands of a team who will use it, with your name on the gift if you want it there.
A nonprofit you already work with.
We know which organizations are under-resourced and ready for this.
Causes that fit your team's interests, not a generic logo list.
Same Pilot Edition. Same Library access. Bulk gifting available.
Facilitated under our fiscal sponsorship with The Connect Center in Cohoes, NY. Your gift is tax-deductible.
Five hundred boxes. Then the table is set.
This first run is the Pilot Edition, the founding cohort of Hosts. When the 500 are claimed, the founding cohort is complete and we turn to building everything the network unlocks. Getting in now means you helped set the table, and you keep Library access for as long as the game exists. Take generosity seriously.
