About One New Humanity

Our mission as a 501(C)3 non-profit is focused on improving the lives of immigrants, refugees, and under-resourced people in the communities of Banglatown in Detroit and Hamtramck, MI, through collaborative partnerships with residents. Over half the population is in one of these three categories.

Our Why

We believe our diverse community will thrive the more we collaborate.

Our Values

  • Radical Generosity

  • Creativity

  • Hospitality and Relationships

What we have Achieved?

  • Incorporated in 2018 and brought on both Sisterhood Fitness and Sylhet Farm as an ONH program. Both were started by community leaders but needed help in several areas.

  • In August 2021, we started Joy Thrift in Hamtramck. At that time, Michigan's most densely populated city didn’t have a thrift store.

  • In March 2022, we purchased a house with side lots adjacent to Sylhet Farm that we are using to grow our volunteer and youth program.

  • In April 2022, we signed a lease on a space one block from Joy Thrift to turn into the ONH community hub. It houses a fitness studio, commercial kitchen, educational classrooms, and more.

  • In May 2022, we launched our community garden at Sylhet Farm, which rented all 114 plots in the first year.
