Hello

Join the Legacy. Shape the Future.

Becoming a National Member of Voices of Black Grandmothers means standing in support of a national movement dedicated to preserving, honoring, and uplifting the voices, stories, and leadership of Black grandmothers across generations.

Your membership directly supports:

• The Story & Legacy Museum for Black Grandmothers

• VOBG Cares nonprofit programs and advocacy

• National Black Grandmothers Day

• The growth of local VOBG Chapters nationwide

Who National Membership Is For

National Membership is open to:

• Black grandmothers and grandmothers-to-be

• Women who honor the role and impact of Black grandmothers

• Supporters, allies, advocates, and community leaders

• Individuals who believe Black grandmother stories deserve to be preserved and protected

You do not have to be a grandmother to join — you simply need to believe in the power of legacy.

Why Membership Matters

For generations, Black grandmothers have been the backbone of families and communities — often without recognition, support, or preservation of their stories.

National Members help ensure that:

• Our stories are documented, not erased

• Our wisdom is shared, not silenced

• Our leadership is recognized, not overlooked

• Our contributions are honored nationally

Membership helps transform lived experiences into living history.
