About Sucoteto
The award winning SUCOTETO, is more than just a wreath and flower, it was created to provide a lasting and meaningful way to honour the men, women, and children who endured unimaginable suffering. It is a way to say, “We see you.” We remember you. “We honour you.”
Each year, on July 31st, we observe the SUCOTETO Day of Remembrance, Hope, and Healing—a day to pause, reflect, and connect with the legacy of our ancestors. However, this remembrance does not need to be confined to one day.
More Than 400 Years!
Over 400 years of relentless suffering endured by our ancestors through slavery stand as a profound testament to resilience and pain. This remembrance honors their struggle, resistance, and enduring legacy.
