$10,000 Goal

The NAACP and our half-million adult and youth members throughout the United States are frontline advocates committed to raising awareness for political, educational, social, and economic equality of minority group citizens in the electoral process.

NAACP is committed to ending racial health disparities. Our aim is not simply disease prevention, but to create an inclusive culture of healthy people and communities. We collaborate with communities through coordinated action to improve the social determinants of health — racism, poverty, exclusion, inferior schools, unsafe housing, poor nutrition, and toxic environments. We disrupt the status quo by working at the intersection of policy and systems change to drive sustainable impact for the sake of our future.

We envision an inclusive community rooted in liberation where all persons can exercise their civil and human rights without discrimination.

Mission

Our mission is to achieve equity, political rights, and social inclusion by advancing policies and practices that expand human and civil rights, eliminate discrimination, and accelerate the well-being, education, and economic security of Black people and all persons of color. We are committed to a world without racism where Black people enjoy equitable opportunities in thriving communities. Our work is rooted in racial equity, civic engagement, and supportive policies and institutions for all marginalized people.

Needs

We advocate for political, educational, social, and economic equality for all persons.

Each year, high school students nationwide start a journey to sharpen their skills through the Afro-Academic, Cultural, Technological, and Scientific Olympics (ACT-SO). From visual arts and business to performing and culinary arts, participants work with community-based volunteers for a year to develop projects and performances. The experience culminates in local and national events where students compete for scholarships and other rewards.
