Love for Humanity

Are you a Philanthropist? If you share your time, talents, treasures or testimony with the community you love, you are a philanthropist. African Americans have always participated in philanthropy, to ensure the needs of individuals and families are met. This collective giving, along with the giving of others who love and support the Black Community, has helped address the most critical issues impacting families and the communities in which they live, learn, work and play.  POISE helps donors, of all backgrounds and with varied financial resources, think strategically about charitable giving, and pooling resources to focus on the key issues most affecting the Black community.
