Volunteers needed for this year’s Kwanzaa Crawl in New York!
Kwanzaa Crawl is a one-day event that brings people of the African diaspora together to support Black-owned businesses in their communities. Heading into our 4th annual year, we have hosted over 8,000 crawlers . We’ve expanded from 17 Black-owned businesses in Brooklyn in our inaugural year to over 30 businesses in Brooklyn and Harlem, last year, cumulatively raising over $250,000 for these businesses.
Operating under the seven principles of Kwanzaa, the aim of Kwanzaa Crawl is to establish best practices for supporting the local Black economy and bring awareness to Black owned businesses . The result is an unforgettable event that promotes unity within our community and demonstrates our power as a collective unit.
Volunteers support us in various ways: from helping with set up and check-ins on the days leading up to the event, assisting with venues and crowd control on the day of. It’s a great way to connect with people in the community and volunteers receive a free ticket to the Crawl! If you are interested, please respond to the posting and we will contact you.
By signing up to volunteer for Kwanzaa Crawl, not only would you be helping to make a positive social impact, you’d also be connecting with like-minded individuals in the community.
