Empowering Children. Transforming Futures.

Breaking the cycle of poverty by equipping underserved children with equitable education, skill-building resources, and mentorship, while also addressing food insecurity and housing needs to foster sustainable self-sufficiency.

Where We Work

We serve orphans and underserved children in Buffalo, NY and the Democratic Republic of Congo, focusing on communities that face high rates of poverty and limited resources. We support these populations to ensure they receive the academic, nutritional, and developmental support necessary to break the cycle of poverty, help build thriving and resilient communities.

Diaspora Dialogue: 
Healing our History, Igniting for Future Impact

Join us on for a conversation about the historical forces that have shaped our collective journey — from the transatlantic slave trade and colonialism to the divisions they created — and explore how we can reconnect, rebuild, and rise together.
