Awareness Month will continue to center Black women-owned ventures from Black Friday through Giving Tuesday with the BFABW Online Marketplace, in which 75 black women-owned businesses will “take over” the BFABW website and social media, kicking the holiday shopping season off and serving as a hub and extension of the already-popular BFABW Business Directory. Giving Tuesday will spotlight nonprofit organizations founded by Black women and serve as an opportunity to explore the role of “everyday philanthropy” as a necessary and sustaining practice within the community.
