Nubian Queens is a non-profit organization founded in 2016 in Columbus, OH. We are a diverse body of women dedicated to helping out our community and giving a helping hand to the less fortunate. In conflict and disaster, children suffer first and suffer most. During emergencies and humanitarian contexts, children are especially vulnerable to disease, malnutrition and violence. Children living in conflict areas are worst off – they are more likely to be living in extreme poverty, for instance, or not enrolled in primary school. The chaos and insecurity of war threatens or destroys access to food, shelter, social support and health care, and results in increased vulnerability in communities, especially for children. Nubian Queens focuses on these children and their families to provide them with the essential interventions required for protection, to save lives and to ensure the rights of all children, everywhere. Nubian Queens also works to strengthen the links between humanitarian action and development work. Our presence in many countries before, during and after emergencies, delivers a continuum of support within Africa. For example, the rehabilitation and upgrade of water and sanitation systems serve vulnerable households in both the immediate crisis and the longer term.

FUNDRAISING & VOLUNTEERING

We work with non-profit and community-based organizations to raise funds to support their initiatives. We do this by:

  • Members’ pledges and donations
  • Participation in organizational activities. For example, the Alzheimer Association and the Breast Cancer Association Walk
  • Working with local food banks to distribute food to those in need
  • We work with Hospital and Clinics
The centres are focused on enhancing the state of the physical, social, mental and emotional well-being of people. This is done through interventions like courses, classes, workshops and one-on-one interactions. The programmes are designed based on integrating various modalities of well-being like yoga, Ayurveda, nutrition, counselling, coaching, etc. To support Nubian queens , you can donate here.
