IBC-Maryland and D.C. Chapters provide local non-profit organizations with the opportunity to raise funds in employee workplace campaigns through its umbrella Federation services. Organizations that provide services to Black, high-risk under-served communities join the federation. A limited number of community non-profit organizations receive funding from participation in employee workplace campaigns as they are unaware of this opportunity and or have the technical expertise to complete the process. There is a great need for the IBC Federations to help organizations with these challenges. The Federation approach provides the one-stop model for organizations to participate in the fund raising process to gain funding to help their constituency. IBC-VA helps organizations build a permanent base for funding programs services, supporting day-to-day operations and developing critical projects which allows expanded services to more people in need.
