Defend Diversity, Equity, Inclusion
The current “great retrenchment on racial justice funding” threatens to close the doors of many DEI organizations, including Embracing Equity, as Stacey Abrams and Julián Castro describe in their article, "It’s Open Season on Civil Rights. Philanthropy Must Not Retreat".
To sustain our work and continue to build on the movement for racial justice, we are turning to dedicated partners like you. Please support Embracing Equity’s goal of raising $30,000 by December 31st.
Your donation will fuel our vital work and allow us to implement our self-sustaining funding strategy by 2025. It's an ambitious target, but one that we believe you can help us achieve in defense of diversity, equity, and inclusion.
Multiple foundations are closing down their DEI portfolios, which has directly injured Embracing Equity. As a nonprofit, our budget is 60% dependent on fundraising to exist and offer our programming at an accessible sliding scale.
Your donation will not only help us persist in our transformative work, but also support our ongoing efforts to ensure that Embracing Equity's doors remain open to all who believe in our mission. Your support is more critical than ever. Donate today to make a difference!

A Personal Note From Our Founder
2024 has been one of our most dynamic years as we took a big step toward sustainability, despite setbacks with fundraising, despite this Presidential election. We’re fortifying our roots as an anti-racist, DEI education movement that will persist and heal — even when we are scared. We are with you in feeling uncertain and frankly scared, for the future of our country. But we know this much to be true: Embracing Equity will continue to be on the front lines of DEI and will now be a critical resource in filling the government gaps and, in the worst-case scenario, navigating government persecution for implementing DEI efforts. We are more committed than ever to embrace equity, to build inclusive communities, and to make space for everyone at the table.
