March is National Women's History Month-

The NWHP is an educational nonprofit whose mission is to recognize and celebrate the diverse and historic accomplishments of women by providing information and educational materials and programs.

	In 1980, the National Women’s History Project (NWHP) was founded in Santa Rosa, California by Molly Murphy MacGregor, Mary Ruthsdotter, Maria Cuevas, Paula Hammett and Bette Morgan to broadcast women’s historical achievements. The NWHP started by leading a coalition that successfully lobbied Congress to designate March as National Women’s History Month, now celebrated across the land. Today, the NWHP is known nationally as the only clearinghouse providing information and training in multicultural women’s history for educators, community organizations, and parents-for anyone wanting to expand their understanding of women contributions to U. S. history. http://www.nwhp.org

Today In Black History:

The National Museum of African American History and Culture was created in 2003 by an Act of Congress, establishing it as part of the Smithsonian Institution. The Smithsonian Board of Regents, the governing body of the Institution, voted in January 2006 to build the museum on a five-acre site on Constitution Avenue between 14th and 15th streets N.W. This site is between the Washington Monument and the Smithsonian’s National Museum of American History. The new museum, the Smithsonian’s 19th, will be the only national museum devoted exclusively to the documentation of African American life, art, history and culture. It is expected to open in 2015. http://nmaahc.si.edu/

Hughes founded Radio One in 1979 and built it into the largest black-owned media institution with over 70 stations in 16 major markets. When the company went public in 1998, Hughes became the first and only African American female to head a publicly traded corporation. Today, Radio One’s enormous media portfolio with a platform that includes TV One, Interactive One, Music One and Reach Media, is the home of the “Tom Joyner Morning Show.”

In January 2004, Radio One launched TV One, a national cable and satellite television network which is the “lifestyle and entertainment network for African-American adults.” TV One is currently available in over 58 million homes.

Before founding Radio One, Hughes served as president and general manager of WHUR-FM in Washington, D.C., where she rejuvenated the station’s struggling sales revenue and created the still immensely popular, Quiet Storm format, which has become the most successful format in urban radio history. After that, she served as vice president and general manager of D.C.’s WYCB Radio.http://rollingout.com/business/cathy-Hughes-founder-of-radio-one-and-tv-one-to-be-honored-at-naacp-image-awards/

The Peabody Fund Established

George Peabody

Date:

Wed, 1867-02-06

*On this date in 1867. The Peabody Fund was established. The Peabody Fund provided monies for construction, endowments, scholarships, teacher and industrial education for newly freed slaves.

It is considered by scholars to be one of the first truly modern philanthropies because of the way it went about giving its capital. The Peabody trustees devised a system of self-help by which the Foundation would provide challenge grants to local communities. Thus, the relatively meager return on the Fund's principal could be leveraged. Help would be targeted strategically. The Fund would seek locations where there were sufficient numbers of students and cooperative public officials who would combine the relatively small grant with tax money to build the school.

By the second decade of the Twentieth Century a large number of southern communities had been able to build schools because of efforts by the Peabody Fund joined by others such as the Slater Fund, the Jeanes Fund and the giant General Education Board, established by John D. Rockefeller, Sr. George Peabody was a prominent White international investor. He earned an estimated $12 million in his lifetime. He began his career as a stock boy and eventually settled in England.

George Peabody is considered to be the father of modern philanthropy. His aims were to improve society, promote education, and provide the poor with the means to help themselves.

Black History Month Fact: President Gerald R. Ford officially recognized Black History Month in 1976, calling upon the public to "seize the opportunity to honor the too-often neglected accomplishments of black Americans in every area of endeavor throughout our history." Since then, every American president has designated February as Black History Month and endorsed a specific theme. The 2012 theme pays tribute to the ways in which black women have shaped the United States and its history.
