New Program: Sabbaticals for BIPOC EDs

How We Make Change
An Affirming Space for BIPOC Leaders
As Black, Indigenous, and People of Color, we are holding the communal weight of systems of oppression on our people and our ancestors. In coming together, we validate each other in authentic ways — fortifying ourselves and our organizations.
Calling In Philanthropy and Other Allies
It‘s no secret philanthropy has been based on a decidedly unfair power dynamic. At the BIPOC ED Coalition, we are calling in philanthropic partners and other allies to reimagine your roles and commit to working with BIPOC-led organizations in more powerful ways.
“We are closest to the problems and are therefore closest to the solutions..”
