Frequently Asked Questions
What exactly is Donyae?Donyae is a private, faith-based, in-person social club and community for creatives, entrepreneurs, professionals, and leaders who desire intentional connection. We exist to create space for real relationships, meaningful conversations, and shared growth—spiritually, personally, and professionally. Donyae is not built around constant programming or performance, but around presence, alignment, and community.
Common Misconception:
“Donyae is a church or a ministry.”
Donyae is faith-rooted, but it is not a church. We don’t replace Sunday service, preach sermons, or function as a ministry. We complement faith by creating spaces where belief is lived out in everyday life.
Who is Donyae for—and who is it not for?Donyae is for individuals who value faith, integrity, creativity, and authentic connection. Our community is made up of people who are intentional about how they live, create, and lead—and who desire depth over surface-level relationships.
Common Misconception:
“You have to be a perfect Christian or a high-level entrepreneur to join.”
Not true. Donyae is not about perfection, status, or titles. It’s about alignment and posture—people who are willing to grow, be honest, and show up as they are.
Why is Donyae invite-only?Donyae is invite-only to protect the culture, values, and intimacy of the community. This allows us to prioritize trust, alignment, and shared purpose over rapid growth. Every member plays a role in shaping the experience.
Common Misconception:
“Invite-only means exclusive or elitist.”
Invite-only is not about status—it’s about stewardship. We believe meaningful community requires intentionality, not mass access.
What happens at Donyae gatheringDonyae gatherings are curated experiences designed to foster connection and rest. These may include community dinners, creative sessions, co-working days, conversations around faith and leadership, or simple moments of fellowship. Each gathering is intentionally designed to feel grounded, welcoming, and relational—not forced or performative.
Common Misconception:
“It’s just networking or structured events.”
Donyae is not transactional networking. There are no pitches, no forced conversations, and no pressure to perform. The goal is connection, not extraction.
Is Donyae only for creatives only ?While Donyae attracts creatives, it is not limited to one profession or industry. Our members include founders, professionals, leaders, artists, and builders from many walks of life—united by shared values, not job titles.
Common Misconception:
“If I’m not a creative, I won’t belong.”
Creativity isn’t just art—it’s how we think, lead, and build. If you value purpose, faith, and intentional living, there is space for you here.
What is the long-term vision for Donyae?The vision for Donyae is to cultivate a rooted, sustainable community that grows with intention. We aim to build spaces where people feel seen, supported, and challenged to live out their faith and purpose beyond Sunday—locally first, with care and depth.
Common Misconception:
“Donyae is trying to scale fast or become a big brand.”
Growth is not the primary goal—depth is. Donyae is committed to moving at the pace of trust, alignment, and integrity.
