We’re excited to host our annual community gathering in a new format in 2023! Bestselling author and inspiring speaker Heather McGhee will join us on May 8 to take a deep dive into the true cost of racism—not only for people of color, but for everyone. Individual registrations and sponsorships are now being accepted.
The Black Philanthropy Initiative’s efforts will increase funding support for its annual grantmaking programs as well as provide grantmaking funding for years to come. BPI is the only local funding initiative that is 100% Black-led and explicitly focused on strengthening and transforming Black communities in Winston-Salem.
We're pleased to announce the recipients of the 2023 Forsyth County Teacher Grants to support professional development opportunities for K-12th grade teachers in Winston-Salem/Forsyth County Schools.
