About TAMOKA Enterprise

Tamoka Enterprise is a family-based business, addressing mental illness in our community. The concept of the business started when Tamia was riding around the neighborhood and noticed everyone seemed to have a depressed facial expression on their faces. From there they started to brainstorm of ways to make a change.

Tamoka had an idea regarding Tamia’s artwork that would help make a difference to show the world how they handled their mental illness. Tamia was against the idea of sharing her artwork to the world at first with the fear of others rejecting her creations. She felt that her work wasn’t worthy enough. Her mother convinced her that they were beautiful, and if they uplifted her spirits after a hard day then they might do the same for others. Tamia finally agreed and went to local businesses hoping for a chance to sell her product.

Our Mental Health Awareness business is dedicated to promoting hope, compassion, and emotional well-being throughout our community. We believe that even the small acts of kindness can have a meaningful impact on someone's mental health.

Our mission includes supporting our senior citizens by delivering meals and checking in on their well-being, while ensuring they feel cared for and connected. We also collect and donate clothing to local schools and shelters, providing essential items to individuals and families that are in need.

As advocates for mental health, we conduct interviews with people around the community to raise awareness about the unique mental health challenges they face. By sharing their stories, we encourage open conversations, reduce stigma, and remind others that they are not alone. Our main goal is to bring awareness to the community that everyone is dealing with their own mental health battles. Always remember to be respectful to others.
