Friendly Volunteers Here to Assist
We are a body of dedicated volunteers of West Indian descent committed to providing opportunities for our children to be in touch with their Caribbean heritage.
Our Story
Nearly 20 years ago, eight people gathered together to start an organization that would bring together West Indians in the community for the benefit of others. Since then, we have sponsored the first Caribbean Jerk Festival in the Greater Bridgeport area and continue to offer that annually; provided scholarships to high school students entering college; and participated in many other cultural activities. We appreciate your patronage and sponsorship over the years.
