About Ujamaa Boutique
More Than A Thrift Store
Ujamaa Boutique is more than a thrift store. Every purchase helps create safe, stable housing and new beginnings for young mothers and their children.
Ujamaa is a Swahili word meaning familyhood, cooperative economics, and collective responsibility. At Nia Imani Family, Ujamaa reflects our belief that strong communities are built when people support one another, share resources, and work together toward a brighter future. The Ujamaa Resale Boutique embodies this spirit by creating opportunities that benefit our participants while strengthening connections throughout the Milwaukee community.
Located in Milwaukee, Ujamaa Boutique offers gently loved clothing, shoes, accessories, and household goods at affordable prices. Proceeds directly support the mission of Nia Imani Family, Inc.
