    Empowering Refugees and Displaced Communities Starting Anew

    Founded by refugees and women of color, for the places we live and the communities we serve. The Tiyya Foundation exists to provide economic and educational opportunities for families of refugees, immigrants, and indigenous communities. Through our work, we create a community that cultivates the fruits of self-sufficiency, ultimately helping our program participants overcome obstacles to actively participate in society. Our goal is to continue to provide sustainable support that benefits refugees long after initial government support ends.

Focused on international-inspired food, Flavors from Afar specializes in fresh ingredients prepared by artisan chefs who happen to be former refugees & asylum seekers.
