Join Black History Month, Every Month
Celebrate Black History Month by committing to give back every month. Come together with a network of racial justice supporters across the country to learn about and support nonprofits that are Black-led and supporting Black communities. By joining our giving circle, you will come together with our group members each month to network, learn, and donate together.
“I think that our movements against white supremacy are dangerously underfunded. I want to meet other people interested in funding such movements and see how we can support aligned movement organizations getting to the scale this moment needs them to be at.”
Aaron Goggans, Black History Month, Every Month
“I believe that engaging in community is critical to my individual development and effectively achieving systemic change. Being in community is an intentional decision I am making. I recognize that with community comes diversity in all of its forms. I am here for it. Sometimes things are hard in community and harm is caused - I am here for the healing. I want to give and be intentional in my giving. I want to know that whatever I am able to give is being sown in good ground. I believe in what grapevine is facilitating and that's why I have joined.”
Karine (KJ) Williams, Black History Month, Every Month
“I enjoy using my sphere of influence to help promote change. Together, we can move mountains when it comes to true social impact and change.”
Junior Bernadin, Black History Month, Every Month
“I love the idea of coming together with a network of racial justice supporters across the country to learn about and support nonprofits that are Black-led and supporting Black communities.”

Members make their quarterly contribution.
2. Nomination
If a member has made a contribution, they can then nominate a nonprofit for consideration by adding their nomination on the post on the Grapevine page. The nomination should align with the focus outlined by your group.
3. Selection
After all the nominations are submitted, we’ll randomly select three members' nominations.
4. Meeting
Each quarter we’ll hold a virtual or in-person networking event for one hour. At the quarterly event, the three members’ nominations that were selected will be presented. They will have five minutes to present their nonprofit and then five minutes for Q&A from members. We’ll have time for networking and connection at the beginning and end of the event.
5. Voting
After all the presentations are complete, every member who has made their contribution will be eligible to vote. The nonprofit with the most votes will be rewarded with the funds.
