Dear AABLI Family and Friends,

We hope you are staying safe and well in these unprecedented times.

This year promises to be our toughest season in memory. The AABLI board and staff are confident, however, that our community will demonstrate a renewed passion for our collective mission: to strengthen nonprofits, public and private organizations through recruiting, preparing and assisting with the placement of African Americans on a broad range of governing boards.

To learn how nonprofits and board members can respond to COVID-19 (coronavirus), we recommend using BoardSource as a resource. Click here read a compliled list, prepared by BoardSource, of responses and accompanying resources to address some of the most common issues facing our community.

Thank you for supporting The African American Board Leadership Institute and its commitment to

strengthening and diversifying leadership in nonprofit, public, and private organizations.

Professionals contribute their unique perspectives, experience and insight to the successful governance of organizations.

AABLI recruits and prepares African Americans for leadership roles on a broad range of governing boards.

Diversity gives institutions the opportunity to be better aligned with the communities they serve, improve decision-making and expand networks of dedicated talent.

Regrettably our 7th Annual Tribute Reception and Vision Awards Fundraiser is postponed!

Out of an abundance of caution and concerns due to recent developments of the coronavirus, AABLI has decided to postpone the Tribute Reception scheduled for May 7, 2020.

We are exploring rebooking date options for the Fall and will reach out to you with a new date as soon as it is confirmed.

We appreciate your support and patience in these uncertain times and will update you once new information is available.
