Our Vision
Our goal is to enhance the cultural awareness of Africa among African American youth in order to instill a sense of heritage and pride.
Engage minds and Avoid Crimes.
ULIMI IS a Zulu word meaning language. Esther Jones , the founder of the organization, choose to name the organization Ulimi because it stands for the fact that language and culture are synonymous with the arts.
African American children need an African Emersion, an African Cultural Explosion, so that their language, culture, and heritage can be restored.
The children will explore Africa, learn an African language, the cultures of the different ethnic groups, their traditions, and the stories of the people. This cultural “African Explosion” will give a sense of heritage and pride. Giving African American children something to identify with
We challenge ourselves to think creatively, applying an innovative cultural and educational approach to all that we do.
This mission drives the continued success of ULIMI TOC
