Our Social Movement
Empowering the Oppressed
Founded in 2021, We Have Us is a social / urban empowerment organization focused on empowering the oppressed through education and resources. Our primary initiative is to restore oppressed communities giving them the ability to thrive.
To support our initiative,
WE HAVE US is building an ecosystem of change focusing on 6 key factors: food insecurities, financial literacy, agricultural awareness, educational disparities, environmental issues, and community engagement.
The WHU ecosystem organizes and facilitates the distribution of resources to low-income and underserved communities across Atlanta.
Together, with our partners, city officials, and community advocates, WHU works to reverse the effects of generational poverty and rebuild broken homes through our outreach.
Here are just a few programs that support this ecosystem.
-
MealTimes at the Park a program to combat homelessness in Atlanta
