OurSundays is a social impact organization that helps people thrive in Utah by creating opportunities for people to connect, have fun through unique experiences, and learn new things.
OurSundays was founded in December 2021 with a mission to strengthen the mental health and overall well-being of Black individuals in Utah through accessible and culturally inclusive recreational activities.
We create spaces where people can build community, gain new skills, and enjoy meaningful experiences in the outdoors. Our programming includes hiking, skiing, snowboarding, swimming lessons, and seasonal community sports such as kickball tournaments. Each activity is designed to foster belonging, increase confidence, and help transplants embrace the Utah lifestyle.
One of our most transformative efforts is serving as program managers of Ski Utah's Discover Winter Program. To date, we have introduced more than 1,300 adults to snow sports with the aim of promoting inclusivity on the mountain. Through this partnership and many others, we help remove financial and access limitations. We also promote community engagement.
Our annual signature event, The Cookout, brings together thousands of people, local outreach organizations, and community partners. This gathering strengthens connection through games such as basketball, tug-of-war, kickball, double-dutch, and yard activities, creating a vibrant environment where new relationships and support networks form naturally.
At our core, OurSundays serves as a connector—linking local organizations, resources, and the Black community to support retention, belonging, and access to recreational opportunities. Through intentional programming and community-building experiences, we help individuals thrive and feel at home in Utah.
