The Problem

One of the most significant areas of systemic racism is the limited funding and resources available to nonprofits led by people of color. A study by the Greenlining Institute in 2006 showed that only 3.6% of funding from foundations went to nonprofits let by people of color. This is despite the fact that people of color make up 52.4% of poverty in the United States, but only 16.5% of nonprofits are led by people of color. We have documented in detail many of the systemic reasons for this in our online Webcast at http://www.urbanministry.org/fundingbias.
