The Sankofa Community Development Corporation or Sankofa CDC has for many years championed a vision to build stronger communities for generations through nature conservation, food assistance, economic development and more.
The organization, for instance, firmly believes that individual well-being not only enhances relationships but fortifies families and weaves tighter bonds within communities, fostering safety , stability, and overall vitality.
Recognizing the profound influence of the built environment on health , Sankofa CDC collaborates with traditional community development organizations and non-profits to address the “social determinants of health” that often underlie systemic inequities.
By tackling these issues, the organization aims to pave the way for enhanced safety nets, greater stability, and improved overall community viability.
Recently, Sankofa CDC was celebrated among Blavity’s 10 Black-Led Community Service Organisations Making A Real Difference .
