Today is #GivingTuesday!

Take a moment to "Give Us A 5!" to support the CBCF's Emerge 535 initiative.  By doing so, you help to place an African-American intern in all 535 Congressional member offices. Together, they represent the 535 reasons why we need you. We are making great strides towards this effort, and with your help we can reach this goal!

You can help by making a donation of just $5 or more today or by the end of the year. Your contribution will help increase the pool of emerging black leaders on Capitol Hill, one intern at a time.

After you donate, join the conversation online and spread the word to your family, friends and community members. You can connect with us on Facebook , Twitter , Instagram , Google+ , LinkedIn and Periscope . Top donors will be recognized in our newsletter, website and social media platforms. So, please "Give Us a 5!" because our future is in your hands .

We thank you in advance for helping to build brighter futures for our students!
