🖤❤️💚 5th Day of Kwanzaa | Nia (Purpose) 🖤❤️💚

Today we honor Nia, the principle of Purpose.

Nia calls us to live with intention — to uplift our people, protect our children, and contribute to the collective good of our community. Purpose is knowing why we do the work, even when it’s hard. Purpose is choosing love, justice, and service every day.

At the Jace Lee Scott Foundation, our purpose is rooted in healing families, advocating for accountability, and building a safer future for our youth.

May we all walk boldly in our purpose and use our gifts to strengthen our community.

✨ Harambee! ✨

🖤❤️💚 Happy Kwanzaa from the Jace Lee Scott Foundation 🖤❤️💚

As we celebrate Kwanzaa, we honor our roots, our resilience, and our responsibility to one another. This is a time of reflection, unity, and recommitment to building strong, safe, and loving communities for our children and families.

May the principles of Umoja (Unity), Kujichagulia (Self-Determination), Ujima (Collective Work & Responsibility), Ujamaa (Cooperative Economics), Nia (Purpose), Kuumba (Creativity), and Imani (Faith) guide us not only this week, but every day.

At the Jace Lee Scott Foundation, we continue our mission to uplift families, advocate for justice, and invest in the future of our youth.

Wishing you peace, purpose, and prosperity this Kwanzaa.
✨ Harambee! ✨
