In a recent partnership with The Black Executive Directors Network (BLK ED Network), we are pleased to announce a new benefit for our Maryland Nonprofits members.

With a mission to empower Black Executive Directors as they navigate the systemic challenges in the nonprofit sector, BLK ED Network focuses on three core areas: community, capital, and capacity building. If you are not already a member of BLK ED Network, you now have an opportunity to access a FREE membership with BLK ED Network.

Membership benefits include monthly programming, leadership Pods, one-on-one mentoring, an online e-learning platform (to be launched March 2023), quarterly networking events, an annual conference, opportunities to guest author blog posts in the private FB community, and a membership portal. The membership benefits apply to Executive Directors who identify as members of the BIPOC community only.

To activate your free membership, complete the online membership form and select “YES” for “Are you a member of Maryland Nonprofits?”. Your membership will be active through June 30, 2023, and will automatically renew if your Maryland Nonprofits membership remains current.

Note: This promotion applies to new members of BLK ED Network only; it does not apply to current members of BLK ED Network.

If you have questions about membership with BLK ED Network, please email info@theblackednetwork.org or call 410-307-9439.
