About Us
Mission - Uzima Women Relief Group International provides care and support to families affected by the effects of war and disease in Canada in order to contribute to the global efforts to relieve poverty and improve women’s health and education.
Uzima Values:
Respect, Accountability, Integrity, Honesty
Uzima Women Relief Group International is a non-profit organization incorporated in 2012. Uzima is a Kiswahili word meaning wellness. The organization works to alleviate poverty and augment wellness among at-risk populations facing health challenges brought about by lack of access to better economic opportunities.
Also, Uzima focuses on medical care and medicines, good nutrition and education for both women and men with a focus on women empowerment.
Objectives:
- To advance education and relieve poverty of Black (racialized) community members in the Toronto area by providing employment-related workshops and training on resume writing, job interview preparation, job skills training, mentoring programs, and job placement assistance.
- To relieve poverty and advance education in agricultural and farming techniques, and kitchen garden training to poor women in rural communities.
We envision a world where women understand their rights and have access to quality health, education and economic stability.
