Our organization continues to fulfill the needs through which it was founded, juxtaposed to growing and adapting to the ever changing needs of Boston’s diverse community. Unity’s membership continues to grow and thrive, presently 100+ active members representing 15 countries--a multi-racial, multicultural, and religiously diverse membership working closely and cohesively towards common established goals.
Longing for a communal space they created
a similar entity in Boston to fulfill their socio-economic, cultural
and educational needs. That communal space offered solace to new
immigrants who were themselves adapting to a new environment, and so the
Unity Sports and Cultural Club – passionately known as “Unity” was
born.
Since little was known about their
foreign games such as netball, cricket and all fours, Unity offered
space and the creative freedom to engage in sports that was familiar to
Boston’s Caribbean folk. This single, solitary action statement is the
key to the formation of our association up to today.
Our ability to pool our talents and
experiences continue to keep the ideal of the founding members’ vision
for our organization pristine. They accepted responsibility to build an
organization for themselves, and today, we are all part of this great
vision even as we continue to evolve. At our core we believe that “Out
of Many, One People, One Unity”.
