In a passionate effort to reclaim democracy, Win With Black Women has achieved a remarkable feat by raising over $2.5 million as part of their $4.7 for 47 Campaign. This monumental milestone is in support of Vice President Kamala Harris's bid for the presidency, and it's a testament to the unwavering determination of this organization.
According to a recent press release, a Zoom meeting on July 28 brought together tens of thousands of attendees, including prominent Black women leaders, activists, and over a dozen Congresswomen. The purpose of this meeting was to strategize ahead of the Democratic National Convention, including plans for state-level organizing. Through the Brown Girls Fundraising Collective, the campaign has raised an impressive $2.4 million. This latest announcement comes on the heels of a historic July 21 Zoom call, which was highlighted by BLACK ENTERPRISE and saw over 40,000 Black women come together and raise over $1 million in just three hours.
"Our democracy is on the line, and we are standing behind Vice President Kamala Harris as she continues her journey towards becoming the next President of the United States. The unity and solidarity displayed in just over a week is a powerful demonstration of what we can achieve when we stand together," stated Win With Black Women's founder, Jotaka Eaddy.
During Sunday's meeting, there was a sense of celebration for the organization's historic accomplishments and their ongoing efforts to create a brighter future for Black women and all Americans. Eaddy emphasized, "The growth and momentum of this movement speaks volumes of what Black women and our allies have always known: we are a political, social, economic, and spiritual force to be reckoned with, and we are just getting started." On July 26, the group proudly unveiled Vice President Harris's first campaign ad, "We Choose Freedom."

In addition to Vice President Harris's recent appearances at various Black sorority conventions, the collective efforts of Win With Black Women have also played a crucial role in reaching more Black women voters. Eaddy explained in an interview with CNN, "When we go to the polls, we don't just bring ourselves. We bring our households, our communities, our churches, our sororities, our community groups, our brothers, our sons. That's the power we possess, and it's what we have seen and will continue to see."
The organization has now launched a text message program to keep Americans informed and engaged in their mission. Anyone can join Win With Black Women online to get involved and stay updated on their progress.
