DMV Africans was founded on April 25th, 2011 by a group of friends and has since
begun to grow and make an impact on the community. DMV stands
for District of Columbia, Maryland, Virginia. The
name was formed from the creators; all based in the Washington DC-Maryland-Virginia
area.
What started out as just
a Twitter page to create unity among the various cultures and tribes all over Africa has begun
to spread its way around the community, bringing along many supporters.
Mission Statement: DMV Africans' mission is to
provide direction, awareness and serenity amongst the youth of different parts
of Africa through education, fellowship and union.
Our Goal
v Peace: In today's society, Africans tend to
segregate themselves. We hope to break the walls of diversity and create unity
among our fellow brothers and sisters. Our goal is to connect Africans in
the Washington DC-Maryland-Virginia and surrounding areas.
v
Know your culture: We want you to love your culture by giving information and fun
facts about various African countries and how they've contributed to
society.
v
Information: We hope to inform individuals about events in Africa or
relating to Africa; such as epidemics, news, new music, and government events.
We're here to keep you up-to-date on all things African.
v
Events: We will also be the main source to know about African
parties/cookouts/events happening in the Washington DC-Maryland-Virginia
and surrounding areas.
This is a MOVEMENT. We Are Africa.
