unatti turns 22

Over two decades, Unatti Foundation has helped dozens of young girls move from surviving to thriving. With safe and secure housing, nutritious food, mental and physical health support, and secured education well beyond high school, our girls become extraordinary women.

Below are stories of survival and stories of triumph. We invite you to learn more about our work and become a sustaining donor.

At Unatti we are expanding our educational sponsorships and proven wraparound programs beyond the walls of the Unatti Home in order to reach girls in our community whose families cannot afford to keep them in school.
