The African Leadership Group (ALG) is an established 17-year-old Colorado nonprofit created to serve and improve the quality of life of the African immigrant community. We do this through social, education and economic programs such as youth empowerment, public speaking and leadership classes reaching thousands of individuals. Every year during the month of August, we host a major community event, Afrik Impact, to celebrate loudly and proudly the impact African immigrants have in the state of Colorado. During our 2021 Afrik Impact celebration, we were both proud and honored to have the Governor of Colorado, Jared Polis, issue an honorary proclamation establishing the month of August as African Immigrant Month in the state of Colorado. We would like to invite you to join us as a sponsor at our 8th Annual Afrik Impact celebration, featuring a Youth Empowerment Event July 28th, a Community Cultural Event & Concert August 5th, an Education Forum August 10th, a Business Summit August 17th and concluding with our annual Gala, our main event on Saturday, August 26. The theme this year is “Breaking Barriers, Building Bridges”
Mission & PurposeMission: To celebrate the impact of the African Immigrants in the state of Colorado and to honor our accomplishments. Purpose: With a focus on social, educational and economic impact, the African Leadership Group hosts a major Fundraising event each year. The purpose of this event is to celebrate our collective accomplishments, recognize our community champions, and cast the vision for our next year of policy and advocacy work. In addition, Afrik Impact is part of our public persuasion campaign to have the State of Colorado issue a proclamation to officially establish August as African Immigrant Month. In all of this, we celebrate loud and proud, the positive impact of African people in Colorado and honor our contributions. This year’s theme is “Immigration, Integration and Civic Participation”.
Afrik Impact provides sponsors a unique opportunity to experience the impact African immigrants have in Colorado. Your philanthropic support will help us achieve our goal of equity in the community, increase the number of community members we touch, and fund our growth as we continue to expand programs and initiatives. As a sponsor you will also have the opportunity during our VIP cocktail hour to interact with our guest speakers and other dignitaries, state and local elected officials and local leaders. We would be honored to have you as a sponsor and guest during Afrik Impact. Please see the enclosed information on sponsorship packages. Thank you for your consideration. Your generosity will help us continue providing programs and events to the community for years to come.
Cordially,
Papa M. Dia Founder and Executive Director, African Leadership Group (ALG)
