Onima Institute for Tradition and Development USA, Inc is a non-profit organization whose aims and objectives are education, research and to foster African traditions and development.  Some of our projects include working with young people in our community in Georgia.  Our concerns for young people extend to the youths in African towns and villages with much needed school supplies and financial assistance for tuition. We also assist community schools in these towns and villages with basic classroom equipments such as desks, and chairs including recreational materials such as school bands.

Onima Institute is also an outreach organization that is dedicated to assisting students in our local community by offering counseling, tutoring, motivating, and helping them to be of good behavior at home and in school.  To help in strengthening the youths’ ability to interact within the world that they are a part of, we offer free classes in African languages which include Edo, Etsako, Esan, Hausa, Igbo, Ijaw, Isoko, Itsekiri, Owan/Onwan, Urhobo, and Yoruba.
