COMMUNITY BUILDING BRIDGES
New England Arab American Organization initiative to fulfill the mission of bridging the gap between the cultures by creating the space to bring people together over food, music and fun. People from both the host community and the immigrants’ community get together representing neighbors, city officials, teachers, interfaith leaders, old and young people of color with different ethnicity, religious beliefs and race. NEAAO plays the role of the moderator to plant the seed of friendship, education, and fearless interactions and relationships.
