Nigerian Women Association of Georgia
About Nigerian Women Association of Georgia
For over 20 years, the Nigerian Women Association of Georgia has been a cornerstone of community support and cultural celebration in Atlanta, GA. Founded in 2000 as a nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization, NWAG emerged from a commitment to empower women, youth, and children by creating spaces where cultural identity and personal growth intersect. The organization's heart lies in its mission to serve both the local Atlanta community and the nation of Nigeria, recognizing the interconnected nature of diaspora communities and their countries of origin. NWAG's approach centers on three pillars: empowerment, cultural enrichment, and education, each designed to foster togetherness and excellence among the populations they serve. What sets NWAG apart is its understanding that meaningful change comes through comprehensive support—addressing not just individual needs but strengthening entire family and community structures. The organization has positively impacted countless lives by providing culturally relevant programming that honors Nigerian traditions while equipping participants with modern skills and knowledge. NWAG believes in the power of women and youth as catalysts for community transformation, and their programs reflect this conviction through practical, accessible initiatives. Operating with deep roots in Atlanta while maintaining vital connections to Nigeria, NWAG embodies the spirit of bridging cultures and building bridges between generations, making it an essential resource for families seeking community, culture, and opportunity.
