Empowering Black Women, Strengthening Black Communities
MISSION:
The 92% connects Black Women to essential resources and community-powered support through partnerships, direct aid, and collective care.
ABOUT:
THE 92% initiative is inspired by the overwhelming number of Black Women who voted for Vice President Kamala Harris in the 2024 Presidential Primary. If we move beyond the politics, we can see this is about the collective power Black Women hold.
Black Women are the most educated, the most determined, and the most resilient demographic in America. We exceed at everything we touch- from education, to healthcare, to finance.
This initiative is about taking our collective power from the Ballot Box and directing into change within our own communities. Just imagine what our Black Girl Magic can rebuild!
ACTION AGENDA:
THE SUMMER OF SERVICE
F(eed) Dem Kids, B.R.
With the help from our sponsors, The Bayou92 and Chef Monique Parker of Bailey & Co. led a wonderful group of Black Women to feed and educate more than 600 children in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. Black Women across the South have reached out ready to expand The 92%’s reach.
HEALTHY HUES, CHICAGO
The 92% Chi partnered with The Chicago Parks District to bring a day of health and wellness to the Westside. Healthy Hues: Wellness Day in the Park brought together the city’s best health screeners and the community they are meant to serve. The People showed up for their community, their health, and themselves.
“I believe it is in the interest of the powers that be that the People remain sick, because if we are sick then we can not resist. Our Healthy is our Resistance.”

Help your sista out
We continue to meet Black Women ready to serve, lead, and create solutions to strengthen our communities. The 92% Initiative exists to help bring the collective power: minds, resources, and efforts together.
Because we are donation-based, our ability to serve depends greatly on the generosity and support of partners and community members. Whether we are providing essentials, organizing grassroot assistance, or responding to urgent needs, every contribution helps continue this work.
