#BPM culminates in August but the movement is year-round, encouraging people to add all their events promoting Black love of self, community, and humanity. We invite you to participate in activities, discussions, thought pieces, events, and generosity that are important to you and your community.

Click to download our BPM Community Participation Guide which provides suggestions for community leaders to organize independent Black Philanthropy Month awareness, celebratory, and funding equity action activities. While BPM does not convene these events, The Community Participation Guide shares ideas and practices that historically have been successful for groups wanting to organize their own BPM-related events.

Recognition of Black Philanthropy Month is expanding!
