Our Mission
Connect children and families of the African Diaspora, who are refugees, immigrants, and newcomers, to resources, opportunities and foster their wellbeing to thrive.
AMANI KIDS is an accredited 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization based in Charlotte, NC. We walk beside African refugee, immigrant, and newcomer families — bridging language access, school enrollment, and community resources with dignity, lived experience, and culturally rooted care.

Deciphering complex American institutional processes that rarely come with clear roadmaps.
Leaving behind extended family, village networks, and familiar cultural safety nets.
Preserving deep African heritage and dignity while children adapt to American classroom environments.
