Help Sustain Black Podcasting in 2026

Black podcasts make up about 1% of all podcasts, yet they continue to create culture, community, and impact far beyond their numbers.

In 2025, support from readers and donors helped the Black Podcasting Awards:

• present 45 awards, including 14 in-person for the first time
• issue 106 nominations
• spotlight 735 newcomer podcasts
• encourage thousands of Black podcasters to keep going through direct outreach and year-round visibility

We are a nonprofit organization doing this work with not even one-tenth of the funding available to our counterparts.

Your donation helps ensure Black podcasts can continue to be:

• recognized publicly
• encouraged consistently
• documented and celebrated long-term

Donations are tax-deductible, and every amount truly helps.

Thank you for supporting Black podcasts.
