  • Today is Census Day! Celebrate by completing your 2020 Census so communities can get their fair share of federal funding for child care, schools, special education, school lunches, libraries, transportation and health services. Let’s make sure that we count all babies and children to ensure they have the resources they need for the next 10 years to thrive. When everyone counts, everyone thrives. . . . #WKKF #KelloggFoundation #2020Census #Census #CensusDay #Children #BeCounted #CountAllKids #WeCount #CountMeIn #GetCounted #Philanthropy #Communities #EveryoneCounts
  • Pandemics stretch the resources of communities. #COVID_19 is already affecting some more than others. La June Montgomery Tabron, our president and CEO, says philanthropy has a role in responding. That’s why we signed the Council on Foundations pledge (www.cof.org/pledge). Check out the full recording of La June’s remarks at a recent @naacp tele-town hall.

  • Millions of people are eligible to have their criminal records expunged. Most never do; it requires money, time and the knowledge to navigate court petition processes. That's why Community Legal Services (CLS) of Pennsylvania and Center for American Progress (CAP) developed an automated process to seal minor criminal cases. It’s helping many Americans get their lives back on track. Check out the full story, “Unlocking Opportunities for Justice-Involved People, Families,” in our annual report.

  • You'll want to tune in for this. @NAACP is hosting a #CoronaVirus tele-town hall TONIGHT at 8PM ET. And, you'll have a chance to hear from our president and CEO, @LaJuneTabron. RSVP: naacp.org #COVID19
  • Vernon Miller, a #WKKFCLN Class One fellow, is leading Akwe:kon (pronounced uh-GWAY-go), the first university residence hall in the U.S. established to celebrate Indigenous culture and heritage, at @cornelluniversity. Miller credits the WKKF Community Leadership Network with sharpening his lens on systems change and equipping him with the storytelling skills necessary to advocate for his tribe and Indigenous people.

  • More than 5,000 young people participate in the American Library Association's Truth, Racial Healing & Transformation (TRHT) Great Stories Club. Through reading, discussion and racial healing sessions, more than 130 libraries are creating safe spaces for big conversations.

  • Entrepreneurs of color are approximately three times more likely to be denied a loan than White entrepreneurs. That’s why Eric Foster and CQ Huynh – both WKKF CLN Class One fellows – co-founded Rende Progress Capital (RPC). RPC provides loan capital to entrepreneurs in Michigan who face hurdles to accessing conventional loans due to systemic racism and racial bias.

  • Every child deserves access to healthy and affordable food. Across Albuquerque, kids are increasingly accessing food through community and school gardens. SouthWest Organizing Project (SWOP) is committed to food justice in Albuquerque. Project Feed the Hood – SWOP’s youth mentorship and internship initiative – is introducing young people to cultural farming practices. Land once used for dumping trash has been transformed into a community garden and outdoor classroom, where people of all ages come to learn, grow and heal.

  • Tyler Gilland, freshman academy principal for Battle Creek Public Schools (BCPS), never imagined he would be in the role he is today. In high school, he was failing classes during his junior year, which meant he wouldn’t be able to graduate. With the support of his school counselor, Mr. Blackwell, he turned things around and then became the first in his family to attend college. Gilland joined BCPS in 2015 as a freshman history teacher, and earned a master’s degree with the help of a tuition reimbursement program for staff. Mr. Gilland wants to make sure that more Battle Creek students and teachers have opportunities to succeed, despite any challenges. He’s part of a partnership between WKKF, Battle Creek Public Schools (BCPS) and Grand Valley State University (GVSU). Through this partnership, teachers receive professional development, mentorship and leadership opportunities. And, middle and high school students receive educational support and career resources to prepare them for high-demand jobs in education and health. Nobody succeeds alone. We’re proud of this partnership in our hometown of Battle Creek, Michigan, and we view it as our DNA – our commitments to racial equity and racial healing, to authentic community engagement and leadership development – in action.
