Black History Month is a time to celebrate the legacy, resilience, and contributions of Black communities across the globe. It’s also an opportunity to recognise the incredible individuals who have stood alongside RAFFA, championing our mission to promote health equity, social justice, and international development.​​
As we approach the start of RAFFA's countdown to it's 20th Anniversary, this year, for black history month we will be launching a series of articles highlighting those who have advocated for charities over the years. ​​

This month and every month over the next 12 months, will not only be a celebration of heritage and history, but also a recognition of the people who have stood alongside our charity, advocating for its mission and amplifying its impact.​
​
We invite you to join us in commemorating a significant milestone and in recognising the extraordinary people who have contributed to RAFFA’s journey—and who will continue to shape our path forward in the years to come.
​
From grassroots campaigners to community leaders, these advocates have helped amplify our work and extend our reach. Their dedication reflects the spirit of Black History Month — a celebration of progress, empowerment, and unity. This October, we honour their voices, their actions, and their unwavering support. Join us as we spotlight the changemakers who continue to shape our journey and inspire our future.​​

These photographers, and many others, have used their cameras to document the Black experience in all its complexity. From historical events to everyday life, their images offer a powerful and lasting legacy.
​
As we celebrate Black History Month, let's take a moment to appreciate the work of these talented photographers. Their images inspire, challenge, and remind us of the importance of recognising the contributions of Black people to our society.

Join us throughout October as we share more information and work from Black photographers. Let's celebrate their creativity, resilience, and the power of their vision.

Therefore, RAFFA is especially excited to contribute to the Black History Month theme for this year: ‘Proud to Be’. This October we have chosen to create a 30-day campaign on our social media networks to look back at our history, celebrate our achievements, raise awareness of our contributions to British Society as well as looking at some recent heroes who have inspired us in recent years.
The aim is to dig deeper, look closer and think bigger and at RAFFA we believe that knowledge plays a large part in that. To encourage our black community to feel ‘Proud to Be’ we need to promote positive images of our culture.
