B22 PARK, INC

Redefining policies that works for all.

Welcome to B22 PARK, INC

B22 PARK, INC is a Black-owned and woman-operated 501(c)(3) non-profit organization founded upon the principle of giving back to the community through for-profit and non-profit subsidiaries. Since its existence, B22 Park, Inc. has given back to the community, with its priority on helping the African American community. We have awarded business grants, scholarships, and other monetary assistance during COVID-19 (Project Money Bag), and have fed homeless individuals in the Downtown Atlanta area (Project H2: Homelessness & Hunger). Although we've given back to the community in previous ways, B22 Park, Inc. has re-directed its focus and goals. We believe in community and sustainability to drive positive change. Through our unwavering commitment, we strive to make a lasting impact on our community in the following ways:

Dedication to Impact: We are dedicated to creating tangible and sustainable change. Our programs and initiatives are carefully designed to address the root causes of challenges and create meaningful, lasting solutions.
Transparency and Accountability: We believe in transparency as a cornerstone of trust. Our organization is committed to keeping our supporters informed about the progress we make, the challenges we face, and how their contributions are making a difference.
Community Engagement: B22 Park, Inc. thrives on collaboration and community involvement. We actively seek partnerships with individuals, businesses, and other organizations that share our vision for a better community. Together, we can achieve more.
Innovation: Embracing innovation allows us to adapt and respond to evolving needs. We continually explore new ideas, technologies, and strategies to enhance the effectiveness of our programs and maximize our impact.

Why Policy, Not Just Donations

At B22 Park, we believe that real, lasting change comes from policy—not just charity. While donations can offer immediate relief, they are often short-term and unpredictable. Public policy, on the other hand, creates long-term solutions that are enforceable, sustainable, and often eligible for state and federal funding. By turning community needs into policy, we’re not just asking for help—we’re building systems that guarantee it. When a policy becomes law, it becomes a permanent commitment to justice, equity, and community well-being. That’s the final stamp of change we’re working toward.
