This workshop reimagines what it means to fundraise from a Black liberatory perspective — one that refuses to beg for crumbs, hides none of our truth, and builds relationships grounded in reciprocity, dignity, and vision.

It’s about moving from scarcity to sovereignty — and empowering Black-led organizations to fundraise without compromising their values or community accountability.

Workshop Objectives:

• Explore how traditional donor engagement models often require emotional labor, assimilation, and code-switching from Black leaders.

• Build a model of donor engagement that centers truth-telling, transparency, and boundaries.

• Cultivate the confidence to set fundraising terms that align with your liberation values.

• Learn how to educate donors without coddling them, and how to build multi-racial donor bases rooted in shared commitment.
