An Opportunity to Take Action
We want to uplift the many nonprofit organizations doing incredible work in Overtown, this year’s location for the State of Black Philanthropy Celebration. Each of these organizations contributes to the community's strength and resilience, and they need everyone’s support to continue doing their vital work. As part of this free community event, we invite you to give to 10 of those extraordinary organizations making an impact.
Thanks to the Simkins Family and the Martin Family/Terra Group, donations will be matched, until we’ve surpassed $100,000 in donations.
Contributions to these organizations can be made
between May 15 and May 29 HERE.
