Rooted in Justice. Built on Community. Powered by Purpose.
For over 30 years, Harambee House, Inc. has been a force for Environmental Justice, Civic Engagement, and Leadership Development in Savannah, Georgia and beyond. As a Black-led nonprofit, we work to ensure that communities of color are safe, healthy, and economically vibrant.
Our work is grounded in five core pillars that bridge local action with global impact. Each pillar is a pathway toward building stronger, more resilient, and empowered communities.
From Environmental Health to Grassroots Organizing, our programs turn vision into action by equipping individuals and neighborhoods with the tools, training, and support needed to create lasting change.
