About Us
The Warner Music Group / Blavatnik Family Foundation Social Justice Fund (WMG/BFF SJF) is a ten-year $100 million fund established in June 2020, in the wake of George Floyd’s murder and the killings of countless other Black and marginalized individuals at the hands of people in positions of privilege and power.
We Support
Our Mission
The WMG/BFF SJF invests in organizations around the globe that build more just and equitable communities and create real change in the lives of historically underserved and marginalized people. We focus our investments on organizations that are led by and work to benefit affected populations, principally Black populations, in their intersectional dimensions. Our sustained, long term investments focus on our three key strategic pillars: education, arts and culture, and criminal justice reform, with the belief that work in these areas will aid in dismantling structural racism and advancing equity and justice for all people.
WHAT WE DO
Grantmaking. Through our Core Fund, SJF Repertoire Fund, and Resilience Fund, we counter the chronic underinvestment of organizations led by Black and historically marginalized people.
Capacity-Building. We provide training, technical assistance and coaching to our Core Fund Grantee Partners to strengthen operations in fundraising, financial management, HR, IT, marketing and beyond. With greater sustainability, our grantee partners are positioned to deepen their impact and influence.
Community-Building. Through our Grantee Convening and networking opportunities, we connect global racial justice movement leaders with each other — and their music industry peers — to exchange ideas, innovate and collaborate.
