ROOTS mission together with Nike is to offer sports activities that are exclusively offered to BIPoC in Berlin that are underrepresented in sports and provide a starting point for fitness activities – with a strong focus on FLINTA* of color.  Participants not only have the opportunity for physical activity but also a safer space for mutual exchange or support.

The Soho House Foundation exists to provide resources to fund and empower creatives from underrepresented and lower socioeconomic backgrounds. Through the funding, ROOTS was able to implement a series of creative offerings for BIPoC in Berlin. The goal was, among other things, to promote participants' awareness of the creative industry and strengthen their skills for expressing ideas artistically.

+233c Agency is a Culture Marketing agency with locations in Hamburg, Berlin, and Munich, dedicated to providing "cultural Zeitgeist" solutions that redefine what it means to be a globally operating brand. Their mission is to empower brands to internalize cultural diversity and drive innovation through authentic, lifestyle-integrated strategies. Together with +233c, ROOTS celebrated its debut in Hamburg. They collaborated on a series of community events in Hamburg and also foster community engagement beyond Berlin.

"Curating with ROOTS  is something I manifested in my dream
journal back in 2022. This was after attending a shoe painting workshop
and seeing that not only was the space full of life, but the community that nestled inside
looked like me. For the first time after a year of living in Berlin - I felt welcomed, seen, and safe to express my creativity. I knew quite instantly that I wanted to share my gifts and create a place of play with this organisation.

Roots team is professional, detail oriented, most pivotal there is soul behind their mission
and it is consistently felt in each event. They gave me an opportunity to share my Carribean culture and artistic talents all woven together in an environment that puts wellness on a beautiful altar. From start to finish the planning was intentional and always reflective of the current
state of the world. During our Tune in Painting Session many guests rested, wept, but most of all opened themselves to the idea that our emotions are our super powers.

Using art as a release can be a part of your daily healing as well as an act of rebellion.
There was a fresh energy wave and new bonds in the community when we finished.
All of this was only possible in the peaceful portal ROOTS helped facilitate. I am honoured to continue creating with this team while I call Berlin Home."

- Jazz Vagabond, Artist

"Its been a dream to work with ROOTS Berlin!
They have impeccable work ethics that are met with ease, genuinity and creative passion. From initial conversations to the day of the event, their team was always so responsive and adaptive to change. Their vibrant and loving energy can truly be seen through their community."

- Victoria Ng, Founder of Extra Piñata

"Roots. Back to your roots. To the origin. Being part of a community. Out of connection and peace. Roots is a community of lived love. Embracing each soul individually. It is an honor for me to teach there."

- Shana - Yoga Teacher/Clinical Psychologist
