Jessica McRae

October is Black History Month in the UK. Visit the Community to read quotes from our employees in the UK who share what Black History Month means to them.At Blackbaud, we are committed to ensuring diversity and inclusion is not only recognized but celebrated across our company. In February, we celebrated Black History Month in North America and throughout the month of October, we will celebrate Black History Month with our colleagues in the United Kingdom. 


We’re excited to share this time with our employees in the UK as we learn about what Black History Month means to them personally. From the untold stories of yester years to the struggle for social justice and equality we still see today, we will honor the contributions that people of African and Caribbean descent have made and continue to make to the UK.  


It is our mission to foster an environment where everyone feels welcomed and included. To build a strong culture where we value each other, our differences, and the similarities that represent our global workforce. Below, our colleagues in the UK share what Black History Month means to them:
