WHO ARE WE?

The roots of Freedom House trace back to our forebears.

Uprooted from Africa and sold into slavery on American soil,

they are the ones who bore the cost and whose legacy endures to this day.

Throughout history, countless traditions have been lost. However, the connection to the Divine Spirit of Life Everlasting was not lost; it was concealed from us.

We stand as living testaments and staunch believers, both by faith and sight, that we, as the chosen descendants of the Freedom Fighters before us, humbly and proudly accept the mission to uplift, advocate for, and promote healing and unity within a dysfunctional community.

Our journey began in 2018 as an online group named The Freedom House of the Crossroads. Our members were on diverse paths of enlightenment and self-realization that also opened their eyes to bigger problems not only in themselves but in the community around them as well. Despite our varied life journeys, backgrounds, and upbringings, three elements united us: our shared life purposes to make a change, the Divine intervention of our ancestors that advocated for our lives daily by living through unspeakable conditions, and above all, GOD. In 2020, the Mothers of Freedom were called to a higher purpose, by transitioning to The Freedom House X Inc. non-profit. We continue our ministry, spiritual mentorship and outreach to the community by equipping certain individuals who feel called for a greater purpose to become community advocates called Freedom Fighters.

We are not just establishing well trained volunteers for community work and projects, but we provide holistic, safe approaches to create well-rounded and diverse Community Advocates.

Through this form of outreach, we are putting the health, growth, and overall well-being of the community back in the hands of community members.

“FAITH WITHOUT WORK IS DEAD SO KEEP MOVING FORWARD!”
