AFRO FACTS

Happy Black History Month!

This year's theme is Black Excellence: A Heritage to Celebrate; a Future to Build”. A celebration of the rich past and present contributions and accomplishments of Black people in Canada, while aspiring to embrace new opportunities for the future.

Black History is something to be celebrated year round. As we focus in during this month, it is an opportunity to learn, grow, and embrace the change that doing both can bring.

As usual, AFRO FACTS will be out and about in the community educating, sharing, and supporting. What will you be doing to celebrate?

We are so happy to be one of the sponsors for tomorrow's Black History Month event being put on by the for their ANZA program. I get the chance to work with this amazing group of youth and supporters as one of the program facilitators.

The event is free, so come check it out and support the community, Black entrepreneurship, the incredible youth, and they their businesses.

ACCEC in partnership with the University of Calgary Faculty of Social Work, Anti-Racism Taskforce, sincerely invites you to an experience of African Indigenous digital storytelling, youthful entrepreneurs showcasing their businesses, as well as an evening of live performances and dinner. 

The event is being held in commemoration of Black History Month whilst at the same time creating a platform for youth who are involved in the ANZA Entrepreneurship Program to showcase their business achievements thus far.  In addition to creating awareness of issues bedeviling people of African descent, it intends to expand avenues of business opportunities for our youths. 

We also hope to generate an interest towards the upcoming May 2023 Cohort 4 Intake as we continue to create safe economic opportunities for our youth.
