Organizer Nation House Positive Action Center
Organizer of AKWAABA Fundraiser
NationHouse was founded in July 1974 in Washington, D. C. NationHouse grew out of the student activism of Howard University community in the late 1960s.
One of the oldest independent Afrikan centered schools in the United States and in the DC metropolitan area, NationHouse serves the specific needs of children of Afrikan heritage from pre-school to fourth grade. Today, NationHouse continues to serve families in the development and enculturation of responsible youth who are committed to their families, their community and their Afrikan culture/heritage.
Currently, NationHouse maintains several fully functioning programs including Watoto School, serving pre-kindergarten through eighth grade students and The Afrikan Youth Organization (AYO), which provides after school activities for students.
