Gift circles are an emerging organisational format to facilitate gift giving and promote community. Gift circles are both simple and flexible. The structure is loose and non-confining, amplifying the flexibility and relaxed nature of non-monetary interaction.

Structure of a Gift Circle :

Introduction :

New attendees can start with introducing themselves.

Requests :

Circle members state a set of wishes, what they'd like to receive.

Offers :

Circle members make offers of what they want to contribute, whether goods or services, possibly but not necessarily in response to others requests.

Gratitude :

Members express gratitude for gifts they have received from others.

Action:

Just because you have made an offer you are not obliged to meet a request, it's up to you to decide what, when and to whom you want to contribute.

How to Participate?

Comment with at least one request or an offer to become part of the gift circle!

Steem delegation or follow me and add your own upvote and comment to any poems I comment on for a week.

Offers :

Edit any article for English grammar and/or style, especially poetry. I will also comment my honest and supportive thoughts on your article or poem.

I have only done gift circles in person before so this is a new experiment. Also plan to host gift circles with voice chat on Discord which will make it more personal and similar to a tradiditonal gift circle where there's rounds and you take turns expressing yourself.
