The Newmarket African Caribbean Canadian Association (NACCA) first began as an idea that Black and oppressed communities must have access to resources and opportunities for advancement. On May 5, 2018, a group of community members came together to discuss how we could build a more inclusive and connected Newmarket community. One pivotal point in the discussion was around a concern for youth, and how the organization can support a generational legacy of education, empowerment and unity that will foster pride in identity, culture and history for the people of African descent. We understood that there was also a need for rootedness and belonging, and a firm understanding meant building strength, partnerships and intercultural understanding. Your donation will move us closer to achieving this goal.
NACCA is a registered charity providing strong leadership for our diverse resident Black community, especially Black youth in Newmarket and surrounding areas.
