On September 25, 2026, 200 nonprofit leaders of color showed up and leaned in at the DU Welcome Center for BRIC’s 2026 EDCI Biennial Leadership Summit.

More than 50 Black philanthropic professionals and Black foundation board members joined us for our Brunch & Conversation, and the energy in the room was a beautiful reminder of what is possible when we create space to connect, share knowledge, and build together.

The BRIC Fund’s 5th Anniversary Celebration brought our community together for an evening of laughter, purpose, and powerful reflection.

Their call to invest in ourselves — and in one another — echoed throughout the night.
