Support Our Work and Mission
We are a non-profit organization that aims to bring the local history and culture of Somerville, NJ to life. We are passionate about preserving and sharing the stories of our community in The Ville and we invite you to join us on our journey. Our mission is to uplift and document the stories of the African Americans who contributed to the growth of Somerville and preserve the community’s African American history.
The Ubuntu Cultural Pavilion was established to augment the history of Somerville to include its history of contributions of Black and African American residents whose involvement and impact have been overshadowed, like much of American history involving formerly enslaved peoples, by the town’s Revolutionary War connections. It is the mission and purpose of UCP to challenge this neglect and change this tradition.
Your support will help us unite culture and preservation of forgotten and unknown history.

We’re starting early with an extended period of giving. With your support, we can continue uniting cultures and preserving stories that might otherwise be forgotten. Together, we’re making history come alive, one event and exhibit at a time.
