Saidiana - pronounced sigh-dee-ana - means help one another in Kiswahili, the common language of the Democratic Republic of Congo. Saidiana is a 501(c)3 organization with a mission to elevate the long-term well-being of the women of Congo and is based in Minnesota.

At Saidiana, we elevate the long-term economic well-being of Congolese women by helping them build thriving, sustainable businesses through micro-grants and skilled training programs. This allows these enterprising women – previously without the means to break the cycle of poverty – to provide the basic necessities for their children and enrich their own lives while benefit ting their communities – now and into the future.
