Volunteers Wanted! Black Power Blueprint Promotions is seeking photographers, videographers, graphic artists, social media content creators and engagers in St Louis and beyond.

Are you looking for a way to support economic development by and for the Black community in North St. Louis?

Help document and promote an array of transformative projects in the majority Black Northside, an area ravaged by abandoned buildings and a lack of access to the basic necessities of life including healthy food, healthcare and economic growth.

The Black Power Blueprint is a black community-led project that has built a community garden, farmers market and healthy restaurant to bring food to a "food desert", built a basketball court, opened a community center, is renovating abandoned buildings for affordable housing to creaate employment and uplift the long neglected West Florissant Corridor.

These are fast evolving programs and more are in progress to create a comprehensive new reality of African community self-determination.

We are driven by African self-determination, a sense of pride and a vision for a prosperous future once again.
