Definition
- In 1972, the National Black United Fund (NBUF) was founded as a black philanthropic institution whose purpose was to enhance the quality of life for black people and empower the African American community. The genesis of the NBUF is linked directly to the Brotherhood Crusade, which was created in Los Angeles in 1968 by a group of concerned black activists led by Walter Bremond of the Cummins Engine Foundation.
