ABOUT US

A 501(c)3 Organization.

CARIBBEAN AMERICAN HERITAGE FLORIDA, INC.

Our mission is to empower and inspire youth through the celebration and preservation of Caribbean culture. By integrating cultural education, community engagement, & creative programs, we uplift underserved communities, foster leadership, and provide opportunities that promote cultural pride, growth, and social impact.

CARIBBEAN AMERICAN HERITAGE MONTH

From America’s earliest days, Caribbean Americans have contributed to the success, spirit, and character of our Nation.  For generations, their skills, knowledge, innovation, and initiative have enhanced and advanced many aspects of our society.  During National Caribbean-American Heritage Month, we celebrate the rich history and vibrant culture of the more than 4 million Americans with origins in the Caribbean.


Caribbean Americans have helped improve our Nation by leading communities, advancing science and medicine, and advocating for the common good.  We are especially grateful for the Caribbean-American men and women who proudly wear our Nation’s uniform as members of the Armed Forces and those serving as first responders, medical professionals, and other essential personnel on the front lines in the fight against the coronavirus.  Our Nation is safer, stronger, and healthier because of their service and sacrifices.


Caribbean Americans have also left indelible marks on American culture.  Roberto Clemente, a native of Puerto Rico and legendary baseball player, is one of many shining examples.  He not only had a stunning Hall of Fame baseball career, but he also dutifully served our Nation as a member of the United States Marine Corps Reserve for 6 years and served others throughout his life with profound care and compassion.  Like so many other Caribbean Americans, he continues to inspire us today and remind us of the strong connection the United States will always have with the Caribbean region.


The United States is also the primary trading partner for the Caribbean nations that make up our Nation’s “third border.”  My Administration is dedicated to maintaining and strengthening our partnerships within the Caribbean regions, which are forged through bonds of friendship, diplomacy, and a shared commitment to democratic principles.  We will continue strategic engagement in the areas of human rights, maritime security, crime prevention and interdiction, education, health, energy, economic growth, and disaster recovery and relief.  Stability in the Caribbean — achieved through increased trade, job creation and investment, and efforts to counter organized crime and illicit trafficking — ensures a more secure, prosperous United States.


This month, we pay tribute to Caribbean Americans for all they have done to drive our country forward.
