Kootenay Co-op Radio is proud to support a radio campaign brought to us by the National Campus and Community Radio Association

During the month of February, you’ll hear 2 radio spots promoting the work of Support Black Charities.

Support Black Charities (SBC), is a pioneering Canadian-based registered nonprofit headquartered in  Toronto-Ontario but working nationally across Canada and internationally. It proudly announces its  continued commitment to fostering collaborations with charitable Black-led, Black-focused, and Black serving (B3) organizations globally, in alignment with the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) set  forth by the United Nations in 2015. This initiative accentuates the importance of collective and focused  action in creating sustainable change for underserved communities. 

SBC aims to increase online visibility, boost charitable giving, and provide essential resources to Black led, Black Serving, and Black focus – B3 organizations (including charities, nonprofits, NGOs, NPOs, SPOs,  community-based, grassroots, civil societies, etc.). 

How? By constructing an online platform complete with a carefully curated directory that links  supporters to B3 organizations globally. Their dedication to realizing this vision involves supporting Black  organizations in achieving sustainability, self-sufficiency, and empowerment, thereby fostering  generational impact within the Black Ecosystem for years to come. To facilitate this, they’ve set up a  resource hub and provide crucial services to nonprofit leaders and their teams, including programs such  as the Business Development Assessment for Nonprofits, among others. 

Some of their programs include: 

  1. Online Vetted Directory
  2. Business Development Assessment for Nonprofits – Focusing on 20 different areas ex:  

governance, web development, social media marketing, earned income, impact measurement,  fundraising, volunteer/Intern/staff programs, etc.) 

  1. Global Black Philanthropy Initiative (GBPI) – Online Fundraising platform 
  2. SBC Academy – coming soon (Online Learning Platform for nonprofit leaders and their teams) 5. Hear Their Stories – Coming soon (Web Series – creating professional trailers & interviews of  each organization on our directory)
