about us
In today's world where divisiveness often headlines the news, Greenhouse Gives, 501(c)(3) advocates for unity in diversity and the fundamental truth that we are #BetterTogether.
Greenhouse Gives was founded by Christina Kafalas, a visionary therapist who, from a young age, navigated the challenges of being biracial and disabled. Motivated by her personal experiences of feeling disconnected while managing growing societal divisions, she established Greenhouse Gives in 2022 to promote unity, compassion, and interconnectedness in Phoenix, Arizona. Drawing inspiration from the nurturing environment of a greenhouse, she aimed to create safe spaces where diverse community members could come together and grow.
​
Our mission at Greenhouse Gives is to provide compassionate action and community outreach to build awareness of our interconnectedness and foster personal and collective growth. We form partnerships with local community organizations, businesses, and nonprofits to host community events and therapeutic activities that create safe spaces for diverse people to come together and join a movement towards a more inclusive and compassionate world.
Greenhouse Gives Vision
Greenhouse Gives is building a future where community, creativity, and connection thrive. Our long-term vision includes establishing a community hub—a vibrant, welcoming space where people can gather, learn, and grow together. This space will serve as a home for Greenhouse Gives, offering events, workshops, and programs that foster personal growth, compassionate action, creative expression, and social connection. It will also support local, small businesses by providing opportunities for collaboration, retail space, and community-driven initiatives. More than just a venue, this hub will be a place where people can find support, inspiration, and a sense of belonging, reinforcing our belief that we are truly #BetterTogether.

Vision & Vibes: A Creative Community Gathering
May 24th, 2025
Event Summary:
Vision & Vibes was everything we hoped for and more! With a diverse, engaged crowd, the night overflowed with creativity, connection, and compassion. Guests reflected deeply, created meaningful vision boards with Ava Wolfe, explored the CKA Art Designs gallery, and added their voices to our collaborative community vision board—all while embracing the values of awareness, interconnectedness, and kindness.
We shared food, laughter, stories, and songs. From thoughtful conversations to powerful open mic performances hosted by JG the Sun, the evening held space for self-expression in all forms. The sense of community was undeniable! People even stayed late to help clean up, embodying the spirit of #BetterTogether in action.
Thank you to every attendee, volunteer, performer, and partner who helped bring this event to life. We’re so proud to have created a space that felt safe, freeing, and filled with heart.
