Uzima Women Relief Group International

Legal name: UZIMA WOMEN RELIEF GROUP INTERNATIONAL

Uzima Women Relief Group International provides direct support to women and girls facing poverty, food insecurity, and limited access to education in Scarborough and across the Greater Toronto Area. The organization distributes essential supplies including food, hygiene products, and clothing while connecting vulnerable women to job training programs and educational opportunities. By addressing immediate material needs alongside longer-term skill development, Uzima works to help women achieve financial independence and stability. The group also offers counseling and referrals to address trauma and health concerns affecting the women it serves. Operating as a grassroots charity, Uzima focuses on practical, direct assistance rather than advocacy work, prioritizing hands-on support for women navigating systemic barriers and economic hardship in the GTA.
