Frequently Asked Questions

  • How do I become a member?

    We don’t have a formal membership policy to “join” Black Luck Collective - but we do have a large community WhatsApp group that members of the Black community in and around Katarokwi/Kingston can join to be an active participant in the BLC conversation. You can find out more about our community WhatsApp group here.
