"Change Ourselves and Our World"
BLACK IDENTITY FOUNDATION, is a registered public foundation that addresses the root causes of social inequality through charitable outreach and improving mental health in our underserved communities.
We believe in demonstrating how proactive outreach in underserved communities benefits all communities. Thriving communities contribute to our society and share the responsibility of creating a better world.
Foundations like ours provide marginalized communities the additional opportunities they deserve by removing the systemic economic and racial barriers to their success.

WE'RE LOOKING FOR YOUR PARTICATION
The backbone of our charitable foundation is its volunteers. Without the support of the good people who donate their time to our causes, we would not be able to inspire change and empower communities. If you can’t donate your time, consider donating a gift. It goes a long way to supporting our volunteers and providing the tools they need to do outreach in their local communities.
Our charitable campaigns include a helpline that supports mental-health and provides life-changing resources to support underserved communities, including our elderly.
