She is the Magajiyya (Queen Mother) of the Hausa Community in New
York, Sarauniyya (Queen) of the Muslim Community in New York. A
Philanthropist and Public Speaker, Hajia Ramatu Alhaji aka Hajia Amina
Bunkasa is a decade-long veteran of social activism straddling two
continents. She has been generous with her time, energy, monies and
resources. This is all in the name of service to the needy in Ghana,
New York, as well as other countries where she has gone on business
trips.

organization called; Zumunchie, literally meaning Harmonious living.
This was to facilitate literacy in deprived communities and help
create awareness in communities on civil and children right.

The thematic areas of her foundation are: To promote the delivery of
health care services to less fortunate people, to help promote peace
and reconciliation in communities through public lectures, and
seminars, to promote vocational skills among the youth in deprived
communities both Africa and of the Diaspora.

Presently, she has established a tailoring school in Kumasi, with
several sewing machines where orphans are taught how to sew. Once they
end their apprenticeship, they take the sewing machine with them to
earn a living. In other words, "Don’t give them fish but teach them
how to fish".

She assists the orphanage in Kumasi by providing clothes, food and
monies for the children. Every year during Eid al Fitr (Celebration at
the end of Ramadan) when every Muslim is required to wear their best
clothes, she provides new clothing for about 100 children in the
orphanage.
