Thank you for showing up, standing strong, and giving back.

Because of you, Give 8/28 was more than a day of giving, it was a celebration of resilience, brilliance, and Black-led impact. Whether you donated, shared, or organized, your support lifted up nonprofits that continue to do the work, no matter the challenge. Together, we proved once again: we are unshakable.

Thank you for believing in the power of community, and being part of something bigger.

re·sil·ient /rəˈzilēənt/adj.: a dope nonprofit able to withstand or recover quickly from difficult conditions.

In 2025, we’re celebrating the unshakeable spirit of Black-led nonprofits. The ones that bend, but don’t break. The ones that keep showing up — for the culture, the community, and the cause — even when the odds are stacked against them.

Resilient isn’t just a word. It’s our legacy.  It’s the elder who started a youth program with nothing but faith and folding chairs. It’s the Gen Z founder running a mutual aid fund from their phone and kitchen table. It’s every budget-stretching, grant-juggling, joy-holding, impact-making nonprofit that refuses to quit.

This Give 8/28, we honor the bounce back. The brilliance. The Black-led.

Because being resilient isn’t just surviving — it’s creating, thriving, and making a way outta no way.

Support the work that moves you.

Give 8/28 is a national day of giving focused on uplifting Black-led and Black-benefiting nonprofits - organizations that are often underfunded, yet uniquely positioned to meet the needs of their communities. Taking place during Black Philanthropy Month, Give 8/28 builds on this global celebration of African-descendant giving with a concentrated online fundraising campaign that taps into the energy of 21st century changemakers. 

Founded in 2018 by Ebonie Johnson Cooper of the Young, Black & Giving Back Institute, Give 8/28 started as a bold vision to spotlight grassroots Black nonprofits. What began with just over 100 participants has grown into a powerful movement raising over $1 million to date for organizations doing essential, frontline work across the country.
