About

Our Mission

Caribbean American Association of Central Florida, Inc. is a not-for-profit community service organization whose mission is to provide assistance to families in need and to provide scholarships to young adults transitioning to higher education.

We are a part of the surrounding Central Florida communities of Orange County, Osceola County, Seminole County and Polk County. Prior to forming CAACF, our members participated in other non-profit groups and organizations but desired to be part of a more community-focused group. With the formation of CAACF, the members can focus on pressing family and community issues to raise awareness and provide assistance to make our communities better places to live.

Our focus

01Helping families in crisis.
There are Central Florida families that are in need of housing, clothing and food. We aim to provide help where we can and to assist other organizations that can help these families get back on their 'feet'.

02Scholarships for higher education.
Today a college degree is needed for nearly every well-paying job available. We want to help Central Florida students achieve that goal. We will develop a program to offer scholarships to high school seniors that are enrolled in properly accredited 2-year and 4-year degree programs at any Florida college or university.

03Advocate for proper care for the elderly.
The elderly members of our communities are as important as our children and deserve just as much care. The elderly are often overlooked or abused and need an advocate to speak up on their behalf to have issues that affect their daily lives properly addressed.
