EVENTS

On Friday, December 5, 2025, we gathered with graduates, families, alumni, partners, funders, and friends to celebrate the 2025 Executive Directors of Color Institute Graduation. This year’s theme, Perseverance: Lifted by Legacy, Fueled by Vision, shone through every moment.

The BRIC Fund’s 5th Anniversary Celebration brought our community together for an evening of laughter, purpose, and powerful reflection. Special guests Dallas Jackson and Anthony Anderson inspired us with reminders that passion, persistence, and collective action can help us build the thriving Black communities we envision. Their call to invest in ourselves — and in one another — echoed throughout the night.

On Tuesday, July 29, the BRIC Fund’s Executive Directors of Color Institute hosted its annual summer coffee gathering at Fifth Coffee House, bringing together more than 60 current cohort members and alumni.

This full-day powerful gathering of over 175 visionary nonprofit leaders of color was rich with learning, networking, and collaboration.

Art & Activism came to life and was at the forefront of this year’s celebration in honor of Black Philanthropy Month. Recognizing that Black Philanthropy is Black History, Black culture, and Black art, tells the stories that reflect our past, present, and vision for the future.

BRIC Fund hosted Gary Chambers Jr., a nationally recognized Baton Rouge social justice advocate, community organizer, social media influencer, and former U.S. Senate candidate in Colorado for his dynamic Civic For the People community workshop.

During Black Philanthropy Month, the Black Resilience in Colorado (BRIC) Fund announced its new BRIC Legacy Fund and Liberation Investment Grant.

BRIC's 2022 inaugural Black Philanthropy Month event with Nikole Hannah-Jones highlighted the integrated roots of Black history and Black philanthropy.
