The Minority Freedom Community Fund (‘the Fund’) is a public foundation organized to improve the lives of minorities through a multifaceted approach that includes providing capital infusions, supporting existing social infrastructure, and promoting holistic wellness. It was established by philanthropist TeQuion Brookins in 2019 to address severe unmet need among minorities in the United States. The goal of the fund is to elevate participatory grantmaking among those who are most often the targets but rarely the voices of traditional philanthropy. Addressing the economical, social, and spiritual well-being of minorities across the country is done through a variety of programs that are led by community members, civic leaders, other nonprofits, business owners, and government agencies alike. Our delivery method primarily entails serving as a fiduciary for programs and providing grants, interest-free loans, and technical assistance to individuals and businesses that align with our mission.
 
As a community fund, or goal is to ensure that the people we aim to serve have the loudest voices in our decision-making processes. We choose to:
 
1. Prioritize funding requests from those who have been turned away from other programs, are ineligible for existing supports, or need additional help to fill the gaps other sources have created through insufficient support;

2. Minimize barriers for our recipients and our donors through simplified, virtual application & awarding processes and robust, comprehensive donation acceptance procedures; and

3. Dedicate our resources to core, mission-aligned activities by operating 100% remotely to minimize overhead costs associated with running a national program and expand our reach.
