Baltimore, MD, January 17, 2019 --(PR.com)-- Individuals and organizations can apply for the grant at
www.BlackFuturesGrant.org by January 31, 2019.
“CLLCTIVLY.org is very excited to offer the Black Futures Micro-Grant. Baltimore has amazing,
dedicated individuals and organizations in our community who are making a difference without a
spotlight, and often under resourced. We want to show our appreciation and motivate others to also use
their time, talent and resources to strengthen our communities,” states Jamye Wooten, the founder of
CLLCTIVLY.org.
Wooten hopes that CLLCTIVLY will help bring unity and foster collaboration among the many
community organizations doing great work, but often working in silos. “Community-based organizations
often work in silos. Silos lead to fragmentation and fragmentation leads to duplication and wasted
resources - such as time, talent and treasure,” says Wooten.
Recognizing the grand scope of its mission, CLLCTIVLY has organized its work into six-phases. The
first phase includes creating an online asset map/directory of organizations in Greater Baltimore, listed by
neighborhood and area of concentration. There is also an online store (https://cllctivly.shop) with 20% of
the proceeds directed to the Black Futures Micro-Grant Fund.
If the organization's first month is any indication, the future of CLLCTIVLY is bright. “Members are
joining, the Black Futures online store is fulfilling orders and the first Black Futures Micro-Grant Award
is just weeks away. The community is responding, and we're excited about it,” shares Wooten.
