Do I need to be of a specific faith tradition to participate?

Certainly not. Common Change is an open platform and tool which facilitates the practice of collaborative giving and relational redistribution for anyone, regardless of faith (or non-faith) tradition. 

When you join Common Change you have the opportunity to design your own giving group (or in some circumstances, join an existing group). Each group will be unique, with a group description and statement of commitment that reflects who they are and what they want to achieve. Each group member, before joining, will be able to read and accept the shared hopes and expectations of the group. Some groups may have specific faith inclinations or be oriented around a specific issue or group of people.
