Mission Statement

The mission of the Tiyya Foundation (Tiyya) is to provide economic and educational opportunities for families of refugees, immigrants, and indigenous communities. Through our work, we create a community that fosters the development of self-sufficiency, ultimately helping our program participants overcome obstacles and actively participate in society.

About This Cause

Founded by refugees from East Africa, The Tiyya Foundation was built on the personal experiences of Owliya Dima, and her daughter Meymuna Hussein-Cattan. Our core values are inclusion, kindness, empowerment, and economic advancement to help our program participants achieve economic mobility and community in the United States. Our identities and gifts stretch far beyond our experiences of displacement. We believe that those who survived displacement are the true alchemists who can create life after loss. Surviving tragedies should be celebrated, and we are changing the narrative.
