The Marshallese American Network for Interacting Together (MANIT) is a non-profit organization that is dedicated to promoting and preserving the essence of Marshallese culture. Our organization is registered under 501(c)(3) in both the United States and the Marshall Islands, and our primary objective is to help people in the US better understand and appreciate the Marshallese community. We have become a vital pillar of the Marshallese community residing in the United States by creating educational programs, resources, and various audio, video, and digital materials that focus solely on Marshallese culture. We actively collaborate with other groups, seek partnerships, and encourage Marshallese people to build relationships within and outside their community. As a community pillar, we have a deep connection with the people, and we are committed to serving the Marshallese community. Our vision and focus are sustainable, which is why we are continuously working on developing more financial capital and funding to continue serving the Marshallese community. At MANIT, we believe that preserving and promoting Marshallese culture is essential for our community's growth and prosperity. We are committed to building a better future for our community by working together and creating a constructive environment that fosters growth and opportunities. We invite you to join us in this mission and work together towards promoting and preserving the beauty of Marshallese culture. With our collective efforts, we can make a difference and create a brighter future for the Marshallese people.

The first Marshallese girls flag football team, proudly named “Marshall Islands,” brought together young athletes ages 13–17 for an unforgettable journey.

MANIT was honored to be one of the partners supporting the team.

Kommool tata to Coach Sania Leuelu for his leadership—and especially to the players for their hard work, teamwork, and outstanding sportsmanship. You represented our culture and community with pride!

This was more than football. It was about confidence, education, leadership, and showing Marshallese girls what is possible.

You made history, Team Marshall Islands—and this is only the beginning!

This historic event created an opportunity for our young women to build confidence, teamwork, leadership, and pride through sports.

Kommool tata to the Jaluit Community for organizing this important milestone and investing in our youth!

MANIT is grateful to the Sacramento Marshallese Youth Coalition (SMYC) for inviting us to partner in its inaugural Back-to-School Family Resource Fair.

This meaningful initiative focused on providing Marshallese students with backpacks, school supplies, and connections to community resources to help them begin the school year prepared and confident.

Education is an important part of MANIT’s work because it creates pathways to college, careers, leadership, and long-term stability. This partnership reflects our shared commitment to uplifting Marshallese youth, strengthening families, and helping the next generation remain connected to their culture while pursuing their dreams.

Kommol tata to SMYC for the invitation and for investing in our young people.

MANIT was honored to join the Back to School Convening hosted by Meyer Memorial Trust and Race Forward H.E.A.L. Together at the Center for Great Purposes in Portland.

It was a meaningful day of learning, connection, and conversation with organizations working to strengthen public education and create better opportunities for students and families throughout Oregon.

We are grateful to Meyer Memorial Trust, Race Forward, and the Our Empowered Youth Team for bringing us together. MANIT looks forward to applying what we learned as we continue supporting Marshallese youth and families in our community.
