Hosted By
Virginia Caribbean American Cultural Association
The Virginia Caribbean-American Cultural Association Inc. (VCACA), is a community-based, visual and performing cultural arts, non-profit 501(c)3 organization. We are committed to educating and developing our communities, particularly our youth, through effective outreach programs that broaden cultural experiences, awareness and enrichment of people of all ethnicities and origins. We recognize that exposure to higher education, the performing arts, and youth development tools, helps develop life-long learners who more readily adapt to and succeed in a rapidly changing environment.
We offer a variety of programs that serve low-income community members of every age and background in the Virginia Tidewater area. Our primary mission is to bridge the literacy gap both educationally and culturally, and support other social programs, such as Meals-on-Wheels, the Boys and Girls Club, Int’l Children's Festival, Old Dominion University for the boys of Sudan, and provide school supplies to children of Newport News, Hampton, Norfolk, Chesapeake, Virginia Beach and Suffolk areas.
It’s our belief that if we all come together in unity, we can achieve anything….and it’s the reason for our Motto: “Together We Achieve"
