History of Black Philanthropy in Twin Cities Area



The Credjafawn Social Club of St. Paul, founded in 1927 and pictured here circa 1950,is one of the black social or fraternal organizations that have supported local philanthropy.


The Minnesota Council of Foundations published entitled: Black Philanthropy — Past, Present and Future — Depends on Long Traditions of Giving Time, Talent and Money.

The article looks at the history of Black Philanthropy in the Twin Cities area from a historica perspective and is interesting because I don't think of that area as having a significant minority population.
