Caribbean American Association

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, Lake County, and Polk County. Before 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 help make our communities better places to live.

Focus on Education

Today a college degree is needed for nearly every well-paying job. We want to help Central Florida students achieve that goal. We start with elementary school, providing much needed supplies and funding to give these students a good foundation in education.

Focus on Families & the Elderly

There are Central Florida families that are in need of the basics — housing, clothing, and food. We provide help directly where we can and we also assist other organizations that can help these families meet their basic needs.

We believe the elderly members of our communities are as important as our children and deserve just as much care. Unfortunately, they are often overlooked or abused and need an advocate to ensure the issues that affect their daily lives are adequately addressed.
