Black Philanthropy Month celebrates a long history of giving and recognizes the generosity, leadership, and collective action that continue to strengthen communities today. It also raises an important question for philanthropy: Who gets to decide where resources go?

That question is central to The New York Women's Foundation approach. Through participatory grantmaking, community members help shape funding decisions, bringing lived experience and community knowledge directly to the process.

This August, as we recognize Black Philanthropy Month, we celebrate the people and organizations carrying these traditions forward and helping women, girls, and gender-expansive people build stronger communities across New York. Support this work at https://bit.ly/4xMC7iy
