Gift circles are both simple and flexible. The structure is loose and non-confining, amplifying the flexibility and relaxed nature of **non-monetary interaction.** ![dividerblue.png](https://steemitimages.com/DQmc2H3Lgvc1aWLMBBeokhh3AkjrLpjDqsB49SqVYB7nXAy/dividerblue.png)

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. ![dividerblue.png](https://steemitimages.com/DQmc2H3Lgvc1aWLMBBeokhh3AkjrLpjDqsB49SqVYB7nXAy/dividerblue.png)
