Ghanaian Association of Sacramento, California (GAS) was founded in
1992. It is a non- profit organization dedicated to helping Ghanaian
families live full and productive lives here in Northern California.
Over the years, GAS has succeeded in becoming Northern California’s most
recognized Ghanaian organization with unparalleled stature in the
promotion, education and sharing of the rich Ghanaian culture with
individuals, groups and other organizations.
GAS has built its strengths from the hard work and dedication of its
members by creating a social environment conducive to the teaching and
learning of Ghanaian culture and traditions to GAS children and anyone
who is interested in Ghanaian affairs. In addition, the association
works collaboratively with outreach and community service organizations
in providing needed services to members of our adopted community as well
as Ghanaians back home. For the past few years, the association has
supported the Loaves and Fishes organization in feeding the poor and
have been a contributor to the Sacramento Food Bank. Other community
service activities include cultural education at elementary and middle
schools here in Sacramento.
These activities are designed to enrich the cultural perspective,
in-depth understanding, and appreciation of who we are as a people and a
community. Our membership is for everyone with the desire to partake.
