February is Black History Month in the United States and Canada. It is a time for us to celebrate the achievements and contributions of Black people throughout history. Black History Month is a celebration of Black culture, Black individual accomplishments, and Black contribution to the advancement and elevation of the global Black community. This relates directly to Black organizations, as they most often embody Black culture, Black accomplishments, and Black community expansion.

Today’s Black organizations continue to carry the legacy and missions put forth by the many Black individuals we most often remember throughout the month. Not only do they elevate the Black community worldwide, but they also play a larger role in supporting and promoting Black history, culture awareness, family & collective heritage of Black people, through initiatives such as preserving historical landmarks, promoting Black artists and musicians, and supporting cultural events, museum exhibitions and festivals.

By supporting Black organizations, individuals and businesses can help to ensure that Black history and culture continue to be celebrated and honored and that Black communities have the resources they need to succeed and thrive for generations to come with the understanding that generational giving creates generational impact.
