The Black Philanthropy Initiative, a strategic initiative of The Winston-Salem Foundation is seeking a values-aligned partner or collaboration of partners to develop a second research report to be released digitally in August 2023.

We will revisit local data captured in BPI’s first report in 2018, [_Rethinking Philanthropy: An Exploration of Black Communities in Forsyth County_](https://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001Z8uyHQEuTtIyz-rhHEkAsoEa8L_aSBZxYOC86dAo8--lVkVQqFisPYgDnfiHMxI1o7ZE4DGHSqJG9VIfIdOl6P4O-MBWJ4YEH47LcJJCjHp44jmJDC-cP6bRIGbjCAtPueJsI5igJfNBTkESDqbtOXkozXKFHKxLVuyNJmjgzFmY4xFVSJayMl0vGOMdOLIH15EdDHVNwQN1sONFWsMTqRb94gQJ1CfxZeAg_HmzHIEw_k7QovIEJbFdlxTwi5kv&c=39nJ-Ahe7DcT6yLjUNGoM0Jr7o8HdfUe6rd6uK4v8yDMWgJN-Kzkvg==&ch=FMf7zkNZU3u6exFmFN0fTqq-mKnrs34yu2bsmGUgPq6QxbI50mRBRQ==), to assess where we are as a community and how we need to respond.

BPI’s [Community Engagement Committee](https://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001Z8uyHQEuTtIyz-rhHEkAsoEa8L_aSBZxYOC86dAo8--lVkVQqFisPcW5Ux9Nvaqgrs7rBStZz_TtAiQRCg0ClQbdTGPTTQJDJRHYadD_JfvgN2uiPFZg_uqYYlV9f2OY2JLmHWK_4qkSI1_cBt2t3u9ArKl3cq1zUIs56B_13qy9Mdt8PNesAQ==&c=39nJ-Ahe7DcT6yLjUNGoM0Jr7o8HdfUe6rd6uK4v8yDMWgJN-Kzkvg==&ch=FMf7zkNZU3u6exFmFN0fTqq-mKnrs34yu2bsmGUgPq6QxbI50mRBRQ==) is leading this project and is committed to creating an RFP (request for proposal) process that is inclusive and equitable. Through this process, BPI seeks to:

· Gain a broad sense of project interest and alignment with BPI’s mission, vision and values.

· Prioritize Black-led organizations, designers and/or writers.

· Prioritize people and organizations with lived experience, a strong racial equity lens, or trauma-informed interviewing practices.
