Black Farmers Index

Mission

Black Farmers Index ("The Index") addresses food insecurity, failures in the food system, and inequities in agriculture as part of our commitment to ensuring that Black farmers and growers thrive. This is done by providing a more successful consumer-to-Black farmer pipeline, as well as connecting agriculturalists to agencies, institutions, and salient resources that build their overall business through creative marketing, educational services, outreach, and intentional community building.The Index employs four pillars of focus:1. Increase marketing towards the Black AG ecosystem that includes growers, ranchers, fisherfolk, beekeepers, foragers, and foresters.2. Collect, assess, and distribute more accurate information on Black growers.3. Provide resources on pathways for harvesters access to capital. 4. Advocate for and inform Black agriculturalists on how to acquire farmland.

Not Rated

Black Farmers Index cannot be rated because Charity Navigator has not received the public data required to create a star rating.

To receive a star rating, a charity must be a U.S.-based 501(c)(3) public charity. Private foundations, consolidated subsidiaries, and organizations with revoked or inactive IRS status are not eligible for a rating.

Eligible charities must also meet the following criteria:

Charity Navigator must directly receive at least three electronically filed IRS Form 990s within the past six years (these do not need to be consecutive).
At least two of the four most recent filings must be the standard Form 990, and the most recent filing cannot be a Form 990-PF.
Report total functional expenses greater than zero, with program expenses not exceeding total expenses.
Have no Charity Navigator "Giving Not Recommended" alert.

A nonprofit may be listed but not rated if it does not yet meet Form 990 filing requirements, is newly registered, files only Form 990-EZ or 990-N, or is otherwise ineligible for a star rating.
