CLLCTIVGive 2026 Mobilizes Greater Baltimore for 24 Hours of Black-Led Giving

Greater Baltimore is putting collective giving at the center of Black Philanthropy Month through CLLCTIVGive, a 24-hour campaign supporting Black-led organizations across the region.

The August 7, 2026 initiative allows donors to search participating organizations by name or cause and contribute directly through the campaign site. CLLCTIVGive says the effort has moved more than $1 million in a single day for three consecutive years. The 2026 campaign also includes more than $50,000 in prizes that participating organizations can unlock.

The model goes beyond asking residents to make one donation. Organizers outline three ways to participate: discover and support an organization, amplify its work through personal networks, and join campaign events. That structure gives smaller organizations access to both money and visibility during a concentrated day of public attention.

The official closing celebration, “Give With,” is scheduled for tonight at the Baltimore Museum of Industry. Elevated access begins at 7 p.m., general admission begins at 8 p.m., and the event runs until midnight. The program includes live entertainment, fundraising milestones, prize announcements and recognition of participating organizations.

Visit Baltimore says ticket proceeds support CLLCTIVLY’s year-round work across Baltimore City and Baltimore, Anne Arundel, Howard, Carroll, Harford counties. That regional reach is important, but the identity remains clear: this is a Baltimore-rooted effort to move resources toward organizations closest to the communities they serve.
