Mapping Your Giving Responsibility

Mapping Your Giving Responsibility is designed to help you as a potential financial partner accurately locate your power and privilege within a system that disproportionately impacts Black single mothers, helping you to understand at which level to enroll as a financial partner.

Your responses to the self-assessment will help you to determine the amount of your participation based on your social location and financial resources.

With this tool, we are saying that Black single mothers and their children deserve more than our passive charity; they deserve our active, conscious, and intentional solidarity.
