A few to highlight from 2023

Bahli Tigray - 2023

TYN hosted Bahli Tigray; a fundraising event in January 2023 to showcase the beautiful Tigrayan culture.
The youth shared various elements of the rich culture by illustrating Tigrayan attire, dance, poetry, food, drink and much more. Funds raised were donated to Keradion; a charity providing aid to young children impacted by Tigray genocide.

Ashenda Flash Mob

TYN in collaboration with Tigray Womens Association London hosted an Ashenda Street Party in 2023
As a prequel to the UK Ashenda fundraiser, TYN women took part in a flash mob across London grabbing the attention of the public and raising awareness of Tigrayan culture.
