Blacks in I/O Psychology

About the Campaign

The Rooted & Rising Fundraising Campaign is Blacks in I/O Psychology’s (BIOP) first giving initiative. Running from September 14–21, 2025,  this campaign is designed to celebrate the progress we’ve made as a community while ensuring the sustainability of our mission to uplift diverse voices and experiences in the field of industrial/organizational psychology.

Our goal is to raise $20,000 to directly support mentorship, scholarships, education, and community-building for Black students, practitioners, and allies in I/O psychology. Every gift, no matter the size, strengthens our roots and helps us rise higher.

Why Give?

Black professionals remain starkly underrepresented in I/O psychology—only about 3% of I/O psychologists identify as Black or African American. BIOP exists to change that reality through access, representation, and community.

Your gift ensures that BIOP can:

      • Mentorship: Pair students and early-career professionals with mentors who offer guidance, resources, and support.
      • Scholarships: Provide $500–$5,000 awards to Black graduate students, reducing financial barriers to pursuing advanced education in I/O psychology.
      • Education & Programming: Deliver monthly panels, workshops, and lectures, plus our annual conference and gala, which bring together nearly 300 professionals each year.
      • Networking & Community: Create spaces—both in-person and virtual—where members collaborate, learn, and strengthen their collective voice.
      • Daily Operations: Sustain the infrastructure (website, newsletters, resources) that makes this community possible.

Your donation is tax-deductible.
