Uhuru Furniture is project of the African People's Education and Defense Fund (APEDF), a 501c(3) non-profit black community led organization. APEDF develops and institutionalizes programs to defend the human and civil rights of the African community, and to address the grave disparities in education, health, healthcare, and economic development faced by the black community. APEDF funds an Uhuru (Freedom) House Community Center in East Oakland and St. Petersburg Fla. to organize around the issues that the African community is confronted with. The Akwaaba Halls are housed at both Uhuru Houses and are available to the community for receptions, funerals and other events for very reasonable rates. Also in Florida there is the TyRon Lewis community gym with aerobics classes, wellness seminars and the Kids Fit Camp plus the Uhuru Jiko commercial community kitchen. APEDF also sponsors many educational programs as well as campaigns for economic development, including health fairs and flea markets.
