Womens Circle and Programs

Pamoja Women offers many opportunities for community, recreation, and learning including Women’s Circle, health educational programming, fitness classes, art classes and more!

Co-Founders Fatuma Ahmed and Khadija Ali have been recognized community-wide for their work.

Our founders bring lived knowledge of the challenges faced by East African women and resources needed to help them thrive.  At Pamoja Women, women from the East African community are guides, volunteers, and recipients of services.  Last year Pamoja Women served 1,500 women and children with an all volunteer staff.

Programming for youth

Pamoja Women offers after school and summer programming for youth in Rochester and the surrounding area. Our current youth services include swimming, soccer, basketball, homework assistance and counseling for East African youth in our community.
