The Kamara Foundation fosters an environment for Black and Brown youth and the African Diaspora, primarily women, to be empowered by creativity through art exploration.

We utilize the skill of creativity to incubate and execute creative ideas that uplift the lifestyle, livelihood, and culture within our communities. Our purpose is to provide a space for the youth to develop ideas that will spur unique, tailored opportunities not accessible through traditional schooling, elevating their futures, and providing grant opportunities to the African Diaspora’s female artists and entrepreneurs to take their passions to the next level. The Kamara Foundation’s core belief is that purpose and passion make life meaningful and are the bedrock of success. Our goal is to affect the mindset of the African Diaspora’s youth and women to actualize their futures by taking action toward their passion, whether it is creative or not.


The Kamara Foundation will launch during the exhibition Orientation: The Voice of The Youth (OTVY).
