The International Awareness Involvement

“The mission of IAI is to promote and enhance global citizenship within our sisterhood, by broadening the knowledge and understanding of other nations, increasing interest in international affairs and developing a greater appreciation for different backgrounds and cultures.”

The purpose of the BAC International Awareness and Involvement Committee (IA&I) is to raise the awareness and international mindedness of the local Brooklyn community of the socio-economic, educational, health, welfare and political status of those living across the diaspora.

The BAC International Awareness and Involvement (IAI) Committee is committed to supporting the DST IAI Sustainability Plan for the seven approved international projects:

  1. Adelaide Tambo School (South Africa)

  2. Delta House/Vashti Village (Swaziland)

  3. DST School Cynthia Butler McIntyre Campus (Haiti)

  4. Mary Help of the Sick Hospital (Kenya)

  5. I CAN FLY International (Kenya)

  6. Muindi Mbingu Boys Secondary School (Kenya)

  7. T.R.E.E. – Training Resources for Early Education (South Africa)

During the global pandemic, our work and support for our seven international projects continue, following mandated COVID-19 protocols and guidelines.
