Our Mission

Guided by our shared vision, we strive to:

service card icon1 2 1 2

Educate and uplift Oroko women

Our mission is to educate and empower the Oroko girl child and Oroko woman, many of whom have been forcibly displaced from their homes and farmlands due to the ongoing Anglophone crisis. This conflict has left countless women and girls vulnerable stripped of safety, stability, and access to basic opportunities. We aim to provide them with the tools, resources, and support needed to rebuild their lives, access education, gain economic independence, and reclaim their dignity.

Preserve and Promote Our Culture

Our goal is to build and strengthen Oroko communities by fostering unity, preserving and promoting our rich cultural heritage, and equipping members with essential life skills. Through cultural education and financial literacy programs, we aim to empower individuals and families to thrive socially, economically, and culturally—ensuring a stronger, more resilient Oroko community for generations to come.

Combat Domestic Violence

We are committed to fighting against domestic violence, female genital mutilation (FGM), and child mortality—critical issues that continue to affect the well-being and dignity of women and children in our communities. Through education, advocacy, and community-based initiatives, we aim to raise awareness, support survivors, and work with local leaders to challenge harmful cultural practices. By promoting safe environments, access to healthcare, and the protection of human rights, we strive to build a future where women and children can live free from harm and reach their full potential.

About Us OWA

The Inaugural Assembly of the Oroko Women Association (OWA), USA in Atlanta, GA.

It was on September 2, 2023 that a few Oroko Women gathered during the Oroko Cultural Association Convention in Houston, Texas hashed out the idea of the creation of an only Oroko women association in the United States. And before today’s inaugural meeting we’ve had series of meetings to look for possible pathway for the launching of the association. Here we are!!! I want to thank all of you who have made this creation possible.
The funds raised annually will be allocated...

  • To educate and uplift Oroko women
  • To create a supportive space where women feel valued
  • To combat domestic violence
  • To build and promote Oroko culture
  • To uplift the health and lives of Oroko women
  • To encourage growth through mutual empowerment.
