About us

About The Soul of Philanthropy (TSOP) The Soul of Philanthropy (TSOP) reframes portraits of philanthropy. Comprising highly innovative presentations of over a dozen vignette stories and more than 50 black-and-white images, the exhibition conjures philanthropic musings across generations. Created by Valaida Fullwood A robust offering of talks, panel discussions and public forums accompany the exhibition and allow groups to explore a broad range of topics to ignite a movement of conscious philanthropy by empowering a generation of Americans to recognize their power and responsibility to give back. About The Soul of Philanthropy Cleveland (TSOPCLE) The characteristics, impact, and legacy of African-American charitable giving is an untold narrative in the story of American philanthropy. Black communities have significant giving power. Two-thirds of Black households give $11 billion charitable dollars. Despite Black households just having six percent of the wealth of white households, they give twenty-five percent more than their white counterparts. Traditional philanthropy does not account for the many informal giving pathways that African-American communities participate in, and tend to overlook people of color in traditional giving spaces. TSOPCLE, is a collaboration of volunteer activists and philanthropists in greater Cleveland united to create a vehicle that educates and informs about the rich history of African-American charitable giving while also creating a vehicle of philanthropy that galvanizes and empowers communities of color. The TSOPCLE exhibition will represent the Cleveland community and remain after the national TSOP exhibition has ended. The Cleveland exhibition will present a collection of historic and contemporary stories and imagery about the philanthropic endeavors of African Americans in our region.
