Mission Statement

Know Allegiance Nation (KAN) is a village building enterprise that seeks to build a nation of knowledge seekers through consciousness raising and literacy attainment.

Description

We teach and provide literacy programs primarily to inner city youth to grow their knowledge, so that they can grow up to pass knowledge on to the next generation of youth that will eventually become elders nurturing their villages/communities. We organize. We train and mobilize volunteers and emerging leaders to take direct action in bettering their communities.
