    📢 Amazing news! Our team had the privilege of a 📢 Amazing news! Our team had the privilege of attending the CommuniCare Awards Ceremony, where we witnessed the incredible impact of nonprofit organizations in our community. We are thrilled to announce that AYCO has been granted a generous $10,000 from Jefferson High School's Black Student Union! 🎉 It was truly powerful to see these young high school groups passionately describe the different organizations they chose to support. We were particularly amazed by the remarkable introduction given by Jefferson HS Black Student Union, who eloquently highlighted AYCO's mission and vision. They recognized our dedicated efforts to stand up for the East African Immigrant and Refugee communities, as well as the Pan-African Diaspora. This recognition is a testament to the exceptional work each and every one of you does. We are incredibly proud of the impact we have made together, and it was an honor to have Nuradin and Ahmed represent our organization. #AYCO #CommuniCareAwards #Gratitude #MakingADifference #blackpdx
