The Black Equity & Excellence Fund supports projects that center, uplift, and serve Black communities in Central New York by addressing economic and social disparities caused by historic marginalization. The fund is dedicated to fostering self-sufficiency, economic development, and community empowerment.
Join us to learn more about applying for a grant from the Black Equity & Excellence Fund. In this informal gathering, Community Foundation staff will review eligibility requirements and details about how to apply for funding.

The deadline to apply for funding is June 27, 2025.
