If your company or neighborhood group has a tradition of sponsorship, consider sponsoring textbooks, school supplies, uniforms, library books, mentoring events or after school-programs at schools in predominantly African American communities. You can also sponsor lunch-and-learn events at your local African American Chamber of Commerce.

Also consider donating co-work space in your office to a local African American non-profit, or donate to offset healthcare or childcare costs.

If you invest with Schwab, Fidelity or another investing platform, consider sponsoring a financial literacy course at schools in under-served communities.

Juneteenth events commemorate the 1865 abolition of slavery in the U.S.
Sponsor and attend Juneteenth events in your community to show solidarity. Learn about
African-American-owned businesses and support them with your dollars.
