Join @plantingpeoplegrowingjustice as we inspire leaders and readers! During Black Philanthropy Month which runs throughout the month of August, we aim to raise $10,000 to support our nationally recognized Leaders are Readers program.

Your funds will help Black children find joy in reading and discover their leadership potential! Through author visits, read-alouds, and diverse book donations, we bring positive messaging and relatable characters to young people of all ages. To date, our Leaders are Readers program has inspired over 8,000 young readers and donated over 50,000 diverse books.
Donations of any amount are welcome! Every $10 inspires a Black child with a new book to call their own and helps to unveil their potential.

You can help us get the word out! If you use social media, please share this campaign with your friends and family on as many platforms as you like. Just remember to tag us @plantingpeoplegrowingjustice so we can thank you for your support.

Many Voices One Movement is affirmation of how this work continues to grow. In a movement built on many voices, philanthropy takes many forms — grounded in collective care and community-driven investment.

Each donation during Black Philanthropy Month goes beyond financial considerations. It speaks to the value you place on racial, social, economic, gender, and environmental justice as well. It is a way of saying universal human rights matter.
