The Foundation Center is one of the primary resources on philanthropy in the United States, maintaining an online database containing more than two million grants and nearly 100,000 U.S. grantmakers. CBMA support of the Foundation Center will result in a research project that (1) identifies funding trends related to philanthropic investments for black men and boys; and (2) facilitates broader dialogues within the philanthropic and nonprofit sector about how to increase and leverage resources to improve life outcomes for black men and boys. This grant advances the Campaign for Black Male Achievement’s priority to strengthen the field of black men and boys by leveraging additional private and public funds into the field of black men and boys.
