Community Service
Education & Awareness:
The African Women’s Cancer Awareness Association, impacts thousands of lives through breast cancer education. AWCAA is focused on both improving knowledge and increasing awareness about cancer across the African immigrant community. We conduct various community outreach activities delivered by trained cultural ambassadors. Our trained cultural ambassadors organize events in their respective communities while leveraging the support of local partners including but not limited to churches, mosques, community centers, grocery stores, beauty salons, schools, and embassies. Through their efforts, AWCAA has reached thousands of African immigrants through community outreach events in Prince George’s County, Montgomery County, Washington DC, and Virginia.
