The Legacy Builder campaign focuses on highlighting nonprofits in the Birmingham area who are building a legacy focused on diversity and inclusion initiatives, just as C.M. Newton did. Anyone can nominate a Birmingham-area nonprofit for their work in diversity and inclusion as a part of the Legacy Builder campaign.

The Legacy Builder organizations will receive a $2,500 donation as well a professional produced video spot that will be shared during the C.M. Newton Classic.
