The Empowerment Project Inc. VA is the nonprofit heart of The Banana Collective VA. We exist to uplift, support, educate, mentor, and restore our community - particularly our children - through love, intention and action.
Our Mission
Our work is rooted in the belief that every child deserves safe learning environments, emotional support, cultural recognition and opportunities that help them thrive mentally, spiritually, socially and academically.
We are not waiting for”someone else” to fix what’s broken in our systems.
We build the solutions ourselves - for our people, with our people.
