Legacy or Urithi

 As  you view this video, please note that it features some of the original founders and early leadership of the Black United Fund of Illinois (BUFI), including esteemed individuals like Conrad Worrel and Henry L. English, who are no longer with us. Though they have passed on, their vision and dedication continue to inspire and guide us. We remember, respect, and revere these pioneers whose efforts laid the groundwork for our organization. Our commitment to their legacy remains steadfast as we strive to uphold and advance the principles they established.

 Urithi is the Swahili word for "legacy." It denotes something handed down from the past, often referring to the enduring impact or inheritance left by individuals or groups.
