We give back. And we invite you to give with us.

Giving is at the core of who SANI is. We give back to Suriname through humanitarian work and community partnerships. We give back to the diaspora through programs that strengthen our own community here. And we build pathways for you to give alongside us, in whatever way fits where you are.

Work With Us

If you have an initiative, a cause, or a partnership that serves the Surinamese diaspora, we want to hear about it. We work with organizations and individuals in a few ways:

Organizational Partnerships — We champion causes and organizations doing meaningful work for the Suriname community. We bring our network and platform to partnerships that align with our mission.

Run With SANI — Represent SANI in the world. Whether you're a marathoner, an athlete, or a community figure, running with SANI means carrying the mission with you. We support you, and you represent us.

Mission Trips — We're building toward organized mission trips to Suriname: hands-on humanitarian work in the country we call home. Read more about where this is headed in Our Vision.

Who We Work With

These are the organizations and initiatives SANI is actively supporting. Every one of them is a story of community in action.
