A little bit about CAIRO: The Center for African Immigrants and Refugees Organization:
"We provide culturally specific services, delivered by a staff that reflects the community it serves by drawing upon their own linguistic, familial, social capital, and lived experience. Our services reflect the values, beliefs, practices, and worldviews of the African immigrants/refugees. We are intentional in our representation of cultural perspectives that inform our programs and that represents the lived experience of families and most CAIRO staff. We continue to work on our mission through co-creating, enhancing, and delivering community-centered programs and services that inform institutions and empower families for our children and youths’ success."
The gala program will include live music, an African dance performance, delicious food from an Akadi, and a paddle raise. We will also share a video project highlighting CAIRO's work in the community which is being produced by a high school senior in our community.
