G4GC’s Black Girl Freedom Fund (BGFF) is thrilled to announce our second round of grantee partners! Our newest grantee partners across the U.S. and territories were selected with a focus on organizations that nurture the leadership and organizing capacity of Black girls, femmes and gender-expansive youth. They were chosen by six Black girls and gender-expansive youth from BGFF’s Grantmaking Council, ages 14 to 22.

Grantmaking Council members came together to define what leadership means to them, explore the field of philanthropy, learn about G4GC’s practice as a resource mobilizer, co-create our vetting process for funding, and share their wisdom to better serve Black girls, femmes and gender-expansive youth. 

This year we invested over $4 million in our 68 grantee partners, funds that will directly nurture the dreams, power, and leadership of Black girls, femmes and gender-expansive youth.

Learn more about these 68 incredible organizations, and how their work positively impacts our communities and the lives of Black girls, femmes, and gender-expansive youth. Visit the 1Billion4BlackGirls.org page to learn about BGFF and the #1Billion4BlackGirls initiative and learn about how it all started September of 2020.
