Through sisterhood, mentorship, and community, we change the economic
and social outcomes for black women,
girls and seniors in Canada.

In Swahili, Ujima means collective work and responsibility. It aims to build

and maintain a community. To make our brother's and sisters'

problems our problems and solve them together.

​

Sesheme Foundation is founded on collective responsibility.

We work together to accelerate outcomes for our extended black family.

In an isolated urban environment, we are a reliable source of support

offering black women and their families the connections, resources,

and tools to elevate their social and economic status.
