Mission
Changing the Practice of Philanthropy through Giving Black®
Our mission is to inform, reform, and transform the practice of philanthropy. We are bringing forth a paradigm shift in philanthropy from focusing on Black deficits to shining a light on our considerable potential and financial leverage in order to increase the assets in our communities with the power of Black philanthropy. We are doing this by creating a strong alliance between funders and Black communities. Along the way, we provide tools and resources to help foundations and other giving organizations make informed grant-making decisions about their support in our communities.
Give Black™ with NEBiP!
Our work is Giving Black® and that’s why we invite charitable and philanthropic organizations to partner with us in facilitating and supporting philanthropy in Black communities. We Give Black™ by working with these organizations to help them:
-
Raise funds for innovative projects;
-
Identify areas of need in the community;
-
Build sustainable operational models;
-
Educate the public about community needs; and
-
Build cooperative networks of donors and service providers.
We also provide grants to help like-minded organizations seed innovative new programs. If your organization is interested in learning more, please contact us, so that we can explore ways to Give Black™ together!
Meet the 2023 Community Sentinels
Give where the heart is
This Black History Month, we launched the Sentinel Awards, a 28-day, community-driven effort to identify a person, group, or organization that embodies The 5 Ts of Philanthropy. A Sentinel gives their time, talent, ties, treasures, and a good testimony. This is genuinely Giving Black®.
Thanks to an overwhelming response from our friends and fans, we have identified semifinalists for the awards.
