Raising $1 Billion for Black girls*
The #1Billion4BlackGirls campaign is a collective effort to mobilize a $1 Billion investment in the leadership, wellbeing, joy, artistic genius, and power of Black girls and gender-expansive youth.
*When we refer to Black girls, we include any cis, trans, gender-expansive, gender non- conforming, non-binary and/or any girl- or femme-identified person age 25 and younger who identifies as Black.
“To know that you have a voice and to see people like you on large platforms is extremely important, especially to younger people.”
