The Giving Circle is an initiative created to amplify and strengthen the political influence of the Black community within North Carolina politics by using our collective power to pool resources, fund initiatives, and engage in advocacy that advances the political interests of our community in the state.

North Carolina is home to 2,411,100 Black residents

Which is roughly 22% of the North Carolina State population! NC is home to strong organizations that are working to educate, engage, and turnout Black Voters in North Carolina year round

While organizations focused on Black voter turnout were able to accomplish amazing work over the years, there are still many barriers to cross. Many organizations still struggle with closing their gaps at the same rate as white lead organizations in the State,they struggle with having a pipeline of leadership to continue doing good work without gaps in leadership, and being able to find funding that ultimately aligns with organizations goals. The Black Donor Network is a network of individuals through membership who seek to add support to these issues.

The Black Donor Network works to pool community resources that are aligned with strengthening Black organizing in the State of North Carolina by raising money from individuals, business, and donors throughout the year that will go towards supporting Black- led, home grown, and coordinated organizing work.

About Membership:

The goal of membership

Our Goal is to strategically build a community of people who are interested in strengthening Black organizing around the State through facilitating  money into the network! The network will think strategically about how we can take advantage of our own networks and align funds to create a stronger base of Black organizing around the State!
