Reed Exhibitions announces $1 Million 5 year commitment to black and ethnic minority charities

15.01.2021

Reed Exhibitions has today announced its commitment to donate $1M over the next five years to selected charity partners around the world who are working to improve inclusivity and diversity in their local communities by supporting social change, fighting injustice and fostering development.

Alinne Rosa, Reed Exhibitions’ global executive sponsor for race commented: “The Reed Exhibitions Charity 2020 fund of $200k has been officially allocated to charities in Brazil, South Africa, UK and the USA. We are keen to embark on this journey, make a real impact in our communities and work with each of the organisations to help them to achieve their goals.”

Devon DeAngelo, social media manager, Reed Midem (France), who has been coordinating the initiative on behalf of the Global Race Relations Committee (GRRC), commented: “The donation made to each charity will support Black and ethnic minority persons in the communities in which RX is present globally. Each of the charities’ initiatives are directly related to the GRRC’s objectives of People, Business and Community. Where appropriate, we will look to find opportunities to work with the charities to create workshops, hold open discussions, and identify mentorship opportunities across Reed Exhibitions. This exciting launch is just the start of a powerful partnership!”

The charities that will benefit from the first tranche of donations are The Adus Instituto, Business Initiative for Racial Equality and the Zumbi dos Palmares University in Brazil; 18Twenty8 and Oliver’s House in South Africa; Heritage Corner and The Racial Justice Network in the UK; and A Better Change in Darien and Ally2Action in the US.
