One of My Brethren Foundation (OMB)

The foundation is committed to engaging and empowering under-represented populations. We recognize that new immigrants face numerous challenges when they arrive in a new country, particularly regarding language barriers. Therefore, we focus on providing resources and tailored support to help these individuals enhance their English language proficiency and communication skills. By facilitating workshops, language classes, and one-on-one mentoring, we aim to equip newcomers with the tools they need to navigate their new environment confidently.

In addition to our work with immigrants, we are mainly dedicated to fostering the growth and development of youth within the community, with a special emphasis on supporting black youth. We aim to empower these young individuals to become engaged and responsible citizens who actively contribute to their communities’ development. We offer free, structured after-school programs that provide educational enrichment, mentorship, and leadership opportunities to achieve this. These programs equip participants with the skills and knowledge necessary for personal and academic success while instilling a sense of responsibility towards their peers and community.

Moreover, our initiatives center on creating a nurturing and inclusive atmosphere where personal growth is encouraged and family ties are strengthened through shared musical experiences. Additionally, our programs strongly emphasize promoting diversity, equity, and inclusion, both within our organization and throughout the broader community. We strive to create an environment where everyone feels valued, respected, and heard. Through workshops, community events, and collaborative projects, we aim to raise awareness about the importance of diversity and actively work to dismantle barriers to inclusion.
