VOLUNTEER
Your time. Your skills. Your heart for the community.
It takes all of us to build the East Oakland we know is possible. At Black Cultural Zone, we’re creating space for our people to lead, create, and thrive, and we need folks like you to join us.
Whether you're setting up events, supporting artists, mentoring youth, or simply showing up with that community love, your time makes a real difference. Volunteering with us means you're not just helping out. It means you're building something bigger with your community.
This is about legacy. About showing up. About standing strong for East Oakland.
DONATE
Since 2019, Black Cultural Zone has been out here making moves: holding space, building power, and keeping our culture front and center in East Oakland. We ride for Black folks, artists, entrepreneurs, and community organizations doing the real work, especially the ones rooted right here in East Oakland.
We’re fighting displacement and flipping the script on decades of disinvestment. That means backing our people with real support, real opportunity, and a vision that puts community first — economically, culturally, and creatively.
Put your dollars where the change is.


BUILD THE VISION WITH US
This isn't just a job. It’s a calling.
At Black Cultural Zone, we’re building more than programs. We’re building power, culture, and opportunity for East Oakland. That takes a team of passionate, committed people who believe in showing up for community, pushing for equity, and delivering real results.
We’re looking for leaders, creatives, organizers, and doers who want to put in the work to create long-term impact. If you're ready to grind with purpose and grow with a movement, we want to hear from you.
Come through. Bring your skills. Let’s make change together.
