Today we are announcing an allocation of an additional $20M in grant funds to support work addressing anti-Blackness and Covid relief Sharing Our Commitments Photo Credit: Tim Dennell Over the course of this year, we’ve witnessed the deep inequities in our society laid bare by the two pandemics of COVID and systemic racism. We’ve seen how these forces have disproportionately negatively affected Black, Brown and Indigenous communities. As a philanthropic organization, we know we have a duty to use our power and privilege to do more to combat systemic, anti-Black racism, especially in our public education system. That is why, in addition to our planned grantmaking in 2020 and the early interventions taken at the beginning of the pandemic, we are today announcing an allocation of an additional $20M this year to support work addressing anti-Black racism and COVID relief, especially as both relate to our public education system. These grants are in addition to the more than $10M we are distributing this year as part of our previously adopted strategy. Learn more about the organizations we are supporting with these additional grant funds and why we are committing to addressing the double pandemics of COVID-19 and anti-Blackness in our blog.
