Overview

Mission

BlackAmericanHistory.org is a collaborative website made up of historians, scholars, and enthusiasts, on a mission to help people better understand Black American history. With help from volunteer collaborators nationwide, we are building the world's largest Black American History Timeline, made accessible, searchable and understandable, along with the tools to help learners easily comprehend the story of Black Americans.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Expenses are high relative to revenue and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
