Founded in 2017 by Surranna Sandy, Black Women Connect vision is to create a space for Black women who love books to build relationships and connect through a book club. Black Women Connect became more than an idea of building Surranna’s community as a Black Woman in the Greater Toronto Area. Our events and initiatives are collaborative and they prioritize support, positive engagement, relationships, validation, and healing. Black Women Connect focuses on making it easier to connect with new friends and our Black communities across Canada while supporting each other. Black Women Connect events and activities whether dinner, book club, entertainment or travel focus on helping Black Women become the best version of themselves while building lives FILLED with friendships, opportunity, positivity and confidence!

Black women are their strongest when in community with other Black women, and the goal of Black Women Connect is to grow this “collaboration over competition” mindset with as many women as we can reach. We firmly believe that we have the ability to make a massive impact as we grow together. At Black Women Connect, we love to host a variety of events! Everything from mixer style connection nights and workshops, to community dinners and happy hour socials. If you’re looking for a fun way to get to know new people while exploring new things to do in, join us!
