ABOUT US

The Sankofa Project is a member of the Samuel Christian Services Network, a community based non-profit organization established in 1984 to provide programs and services to risk-exposed DC youth and their families.

Each December, the Sankofa Project puts its "Positive Peer Pressure" philosophy into action by vetting and inviting some of the best talent in the Nation (with team GPAs of 3.0 and better) to participate in the National Title IX Holiday Invitational Conference and Classic (NTHICC).
