Wa'ela Tigray

Wa’Ela Tigray is an annual conference organized by the Tigray Communities Forum NA Inc. (TCFNA) since 2019, bringing Tigrayans together in a different member city each year. Beyond fostering unity, each gathering raises funds to establish a Tigray Community Center, creating a lasting resource for the local community. Wa’Ela is a welcoming space for all Tigrayans—it is a non-political and non-religious gathering that embraces everyone, whether part of the diaspora, first-generation, or newly connected to the community. Its mission is to empower the Tigrayan community by enhancing participation in local initiatives, offering educational resources, preserving cultural heritage, and promoting civic engagement.
