About Us

Mission Statement

Uniting through diversity
Empowering through education.

Welcome to Ekta Health Initiative

Founded by Harshdeep Singh and Ameet Kaur, our association is dedicated to raising awareness of health issues that disproportionately affect specific races and ethnicities. We understand that every community has unique health challenges, and our mission is to empower these communities through culturally relevant and accessible health education. Despite the diverse communities we wish to serve, we hope to remain in “ekta” (punjabi for “unity”) in our mission.

Our events and resources are designed to address the most pressing health concerns faced by different racial and ethnic groups. By providing tailored information and support, we aim to bridge the gap in healthcare knowledge and promote healthier, more informed communities.

Join us in our mission to create a world where everyone has the tools and understanding to make informed decisions about their health, no matter their background. Explore our events, dive into our resources, and help us spread awareness about the vital health issues impacting diverse communities.
