We promote understanding of American and Turkish cultures through cultural and educational activities, and help our friends feel at home in their local communities.
We are dedicated to reaching out to people from all walks of life to establish a better society.
We, the Turkish Americans, believe that promoting respect and mutual understanding among all cultures and faiths is one of the critical means to create a harmonious environment. Turkish cultural programs, classes, Saturday schools, homework clubs, Ramadan and Sacrifice Festival celebrations, seminars, and church and synagogue visits are a few of the ways we give back to our society.
