Mission and programs · 2024

Mission

To cultivate a more diverse equitable and inclusive environment within our communities by focusing on unity and connecting clients to needed resources for the betterment of the underserved underrepresented marginalized and those to whom the effects of prejudice or systemic bias have impacted.

Activities or mission (Part I)

To cultivate a more diverse equitable and inclusive environment within our communities for the betterment of the underserved underrepresented marginalized and those to whom the effects of prejudice or systemic bias have impacted.

  • Umoja means "unity" in the Swahili language. In 2024 Umoja Village organized the second Unity Weekend which featured three distinct events to celebrate the African American culture and history and to enlighten and educate the community. Event #1 is the largest FREE outdoor Gospel festival in our region entitled Shoutfest. The event features all day Gospel music performances and praise dancers; over 50 vendors; and a very active Kidszone. Event #2 was a racial reconciliation community event entitled "One Love One Heart For Reconciliation. Event #3 was our first Unity Golf Tournament where we raised almost $15,000 to be used towards our crime prevention plan activities and for our Richard Johnson Jr. Umoja Village Resource Center.

    Expenses $54,893 · Revenue $41,976

  • Umoja Village created an initiative as part of the Umoja Village Rebuilding The Foundation Crime Prevention Plan entitled "Project Bounce Back." This initiative works with the adult second chance population. Any client who requests assistance from Umoja Village with housing assistance transportation services job creation initiatives etc. is required to establish a Life Action Plan. From there Umoja Village provides support services to address any barriers to help them move forward with life. Another adult second chance initiative supported by Umoja Village was the PharmTech Express program where we provided academic assistance totalling $11,900 to individuals seeking to become training pharmacy technicians.

    Expenses $31,350

  • Umoja Village Funding Allocation Process: As part of the Umoja Village Rebuilding The Foundation Crime Prevention Plan one of the primary strategies is to invest in those local youth mentorship and adult second chance initiatives that we know are making a difference; however they arent able to be as effective due to limited funding. Through our own grant process we require those organizations to attend our grant writing workshop prior to submitting an application for funding.

    Expenses $31,751

  • Annual Black History Community Celebration: Since 2022 Umoja Village plans an annual Black History celebration that is meaningful substantive and adds value for the community. At this event which is very reasonably priced to allow the community to afford we recognize each years honorees of our annual "Umoja Village Celebrates Black Excellence" wall calendars. The event features a guest speaker historical presentations and other appropriate entertainment. The 2024 expenses were $16,093.94; and the revenues along with calendar sales were $11,438.54. Sponsorships and collaborations with other organizations: Because Umoja Village promotes unity we exemplify unity by collaborating with other organizations or by sponsoring events that align with our mission. The 2024 events included Kodas Kids Foundation The Center For African American History Art & Culture the NAACP The Big 7 Association TriDevelopment Center etc. The 2024 expenses for those collaborations were $6,177.84. We held a combination Founders Day and Juneteenth event $4,287.25. We provided Hurricane Helene relief to underserved neighborhoods by hiring food trucks and providing grocery store gift cards $7,565.00.

    Expenses $34,124 · Revenue $15,564

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those.
