About Us
Who we are
The Tigrayan Association in Toronto was founded in 1984 to serve the Tigrayan community in the Greater Toronto Area as well as help voice the plight of Tigrayans living in their homeland. Tigrayan Association in Toronto (TAT) is a non-profit charity association organized exclusively for the purposes set forth in its bylaw. TAT works to bring all Tigrayans to unite and collaborate using their skills, knowledge and expertise. They solve the prevalent educational, cultural, social and economic problems community members and their offspring are facing to help them succeed in Canada.
Our Mission
Our mission is to serve, support, and advance the interest of the members of Tigrayans in Toronto and surrounding areas. We aim to build a strong, unified, and caring Tigrayan community where youth, adults, and elders are engaged and contributing to mutual advancement through educational, social, economic, and cultural ties.
Our Goals
- To educate our children to be competent and responsible Canadian citizens.
- To educate our children about our culture, language, tradition, and values.
- To establish a strong relationship with Tigray and be actively involved in the development of Tigray with volunteerism, investment, promotion of tourism, and transfer of technology and best practices, etc.
- To strengthen relations with similar international communities.
- To establish one strong Tigray community centre and branch centres when the need and ability so requires.
We provide a community:

- To provide mediation services to members to diminish conflicts and misunderstandings among members, families and the community at large.
