Unfunded: Black Communities Overlooked by Canadian Philanthropy

Network for the Advancement of Black Communities and Carleton University's Philanthropy and Nonprofit Leadership Program

It also suggests that Canadian philanthropy has not sufficiently invested in the well-being of Black communities and Black community organizations. This research report provides the first systematic, empirical examination of the extent to which Canadian philanthropy has responded to the unique and intersectional challenges facing Black communities. From the Network for the Advancement of Black Communities and Carleton University’s Philanthropy and Nonprofit Leadership program.
