Grants
Our Impact: Making grants that elevate and support critical work in the Black community
Our Mission: We aim to be a trusted leader in organizing people to support philanthropic causes in the Black community. We enhance support for implementing effective capacity-building for people and organizations by mobilizing additional financial, social, and intellectual resources. We will provide efficient and effective services to build a collection of permanent funds.
Your investment in The Penny Foundation is stewarded by a staff, volunteers and board of directors committed to offering grants that support and affirm the Black community. These grants drive economic growth, innovation and community development — ultimately creating opportunities and addressing economic inequality.
With your help, we are committed to increasing generational wealth, sustaining smart communities, supporting entrepreneurship, building stakeholder relationships and assisting nonprofits and other organizations in bolstering the Black community.
