About us
Who We Are
African Cultural Alliance of North America Inc. (ACANA) is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization based in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. ACANA serves African and Caribbean immigrants by providing access to social and legal services, community development programs, health services, organizing African arts and culture events, and an array of many other services
Our Objectives
ACANA’s objectives are to not only assist new residents in their adjustment and resettlement, but to help them become active participants in their new environments. In doing so, ACANA strongly believes in working with people of all backgrounds to build a better community.
Our communities mostly are not aware of some of the opportunities provided to them by the State and Federal. We have taken it upon ourselves to connect all these resources to the people who mostly needs it and create awareness for the community through our community engagement programs.
Come join us
We need to reshape our own perception of how we view ourselves. We have to come together to build a community free of poverty.
