Dear Friends of Oasis During 2024, we engaged members of our community through the many different community services we provide. This year we ask that you save the date—April 1 st , to join us during 401Gives, a local day of giving. On this day, our goal is to encourage our partners, friends, and community members to support us as we aim to raise funds to further our mission of bringing opportunities to build a healthy, sustainable African Community by investing in and embracing community empowerment to support the enhancement of economic mobility and equity for our community. Each gift made on April 1, 2025, will play a critical role in serving our community with many community services and engagement activities planned throughout the year, allowing us to continue to make an impact. Your relationship with Oasis is important to us and we look forward to engaging with you throughout this year by offering a variety of ways for you to support us. By giving of your time as a volunteer, sharing your talent or special skills that might help us, or through a financial donation, know that your gift of any kind--in any amount, will be greatly appreciated. We encourage you to stay connected by visiting us on our social media website: oasisri.org . With Warmest Regards, Morris Akinfolarin Executive Director Oasis International- The African Center of R I.
