Black Giving Day – #Give828

Black Philanthropy Month is Here. Do you know what you’re doing yet?

This is a very exciting time of the year for Support Black Charities.

Black Philanthropy Month (BPM), observed in August, was created in 2001 by its Founder Dr. Jackie Bouvier Copeland, with the support of Reunity, formerly the Pan-African Women’s Philanthropy Network.

Today, it is a global celebration and collaborative campaign to elevate African descent giving and funding equity. In 2011, it launched its first official global summit to commemorate the United Nations Year and Decade of People of African Descent.

Every year, the movement has gotten bigger and is now recognized by 35+ government bodies, including the United Nations, it has engaged at least 19 million people across 60 countries from its inception.

The theme for 2024 is “Afro-Futures of Giving.”
