My name is Mirabel Umenei and I represent the African Collaborative Network (ACN), a dedicated non-profit organization that tirelessly advocates for African immigrants, refugees, and migrants, particularly in West Michigan. Our mission is to amplify these voices and foster a sense of unity, empowerment, and development within these diverse communities.
The ACN provides a range of transformative programs focused on cultural awareness, educational access, economic empowerment, and advocacy. These initiatives are tailored to address the unique challenges faced by our African immigrant, refugee, and migrant communities, and are designed to provide the tools they need to thrive and contribute positively to society.
While our efforts have yielded remarkable success, the scope of the challenges we face means there is still much to do. We cannot accomplish our mission without the generosity of donors like you.
