Iya Akua Ishangi Repatriation to Gambia May 2021

Donation protected
As far back as I can remember Iya Akua Ishangi and the entire Ishangi Family  have been synonymous with what life looks like when you live and breathe African culture intentionally. 


We are so excited to share that she is in the final stages of packing her bags and in a few shorts weeks will be  boarding a plane to  REPATRIATE TO THE MOTHERLAND!!! 

May 2021  is the beginning of this leg of the journey... After 40 years of planning and working towards fully relocating to the Gambia West Africa Iya is realizing the vision of returning to the shores of Africa with the intention of contining to build upon the foundation of Ishangi Kunda, laid by Baba Kwame Ishangi.
Iya said....."What I envision for Ishangi Kunda is huge. Having monetary assistance would greatly strengthen the vision to becoming reality."


We invite you to join us in sending Iya home supported  and celebrated by the community!!

- Create the Baba Kwame Ishangi Library & Tech Center 
- Beautification & Landscaping the Ancestral Gardens at Ishangi Kunda, the Gambia

- Installing Mindful Meditation Pergola & Serenity Water Feature


and most importantly... demonstrate the power of our collective dollar and love!
