BASE launches THE place for Black residents in Southern Oregon to discover leadership employment, volunteerism, internships, board and commission positions

Last year I did a series of stories on Black business owners in Southern Oregon for Black History Month and showcasing the good work that BASEOregon.org is doing. 

BASE is an acronym for Black Alliance & Social Empowerment and I have been supporting them in one way or another since they launched the non-profit. I wanted to circle back on what B.A.S.E. has been up to since then.

One of my companies (Project A) donated a website upgrade that BASE called Opportunities. 

It’s a job board with a vision to be THE place for Black residents in Southern Oregon to discover leadership employment, volunteerism, internships, board and commission positions, and other ways to get involved in our community. 

“We all know that economic opportunity is the pathway to a more inclusive Southern Oregon.” Said the BASE leadership team via a press release about the new website feature, “We want to provide a platform for those of you doing good work in the community to connect with Black residents and to empower Black residents to get involved in the community they call home. “

Many organizations in Southern Oregon have expressed interest in making their teams more diverse, or in creating a workplace more representative of the community we live in.

This tool provides a way to reach the Black residents in Southern Oregon.
