Dincert: bringing philanthropy home.
We support social impact work. Without any strings attached.
Our mission is to raise money for non-profits that provide direct-services so that they can focus on the hard work, rather than having to navigate the waters of traditional philanthropy, funds, endowments, and giving-channels.
We do this by throwing events (which we cleverly call Dincerts (dinner+concerts)) that highlight the glory of local musicians, neighborhood restaurants, and home-made food. There is no minimum donation amount to attend.
We started Dincert because we believe that resistance to injustice is strengthened and emboldened by hope and community--specifically through music, art and food. We want to bring people together not just to raise awareness and money, but to remind people that our humanity is common, that our struggle and joys are connected.
We used to not include our names anywhere on this site—intentionally—because Dincert is meant to be about harnessing the power of community. You are the creators, collaborators, and the people that bring these events to life. But we’ve gotten feedback that you need to know we aren’t robots (or thieves). So, hi, I am Jasmine and this is Mandeep.
