Overview

Mission

The international association of black professionals in international affairs (bpia) is dedicated to increasing the involvement of african americans and individuals of african heritage in international affairs.

What it reported doing in 2025

Business & economic development program: the business & economic development program assists bpia members in developing and cultivating a global mindset, whether their goal is to pursue a successful career in international affairs or simply become better informed about foreign policy issues. Events such as think & drink gatherings on topics including human trafficking and bpia chats instagram live interviews on subjects such as "imposter syndrome: why you belong in the room" provide opportunities for members to broaden their personal and professional knowledge, insights, and experiences. The program also establishes partnerships with other organizations to support these efforts.

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 - The filed numbers largely add up and a large share of available resources goes toward mission work. A relatively small share of total spending goes to programs and expenses are high relative to revenue.
