Did you know CCT became a Black-led #nonprofit in 2020, the first in the agency’s fifty year history! Celebrated annually in August, Black Philanthropy Month was created in 2011 by Dr. Jackie Bouvier Copeland and the Pan-African Women’s #Philanthropy Network as an annual global celebration of African-descent giving. Did you know that across all CCT programs, over 85% participants self-identify as Black/African-American? Beginning on Thursday, 8/1, #BPM2024CLT will encourage and promote community-wide participation by: ● Amplifying stories of Charlotte’s Black-led and Black-benefitting nonprofits ● Engaging community members and nonprofit leaders with a variety of virtual events to heighten awareness and make connections ● Channeling donation dollars and match resources to benefit Black-led and Black-benefitting nonprofits #BPM2024CLT culminates on 8/28 in a day we call “CLT Gives Black” (nationally celebrated as Give 8/28). CLT Gives Black is a call to action for our community to make financial gifts to Black-led and Black-benefiting nonprofits to support their important work in #Charlotte. Thank YOU in advance for opting in during #BPM2024CLT and supporting our work toward making Charlotte a true #secondchance city! ## Stats - **Views:** 0 - **Likes:** 14 - **Shares:** 0 - **Comments:** 0 ## Tags charlotte, philanthropy, secondchance, bpm2024clt, nonprofit --- Copyright (c) Gondola
