AACIF is a non-profit IRC 501(c)(3) organization established in 2017 by a group of enthusiastic women who are eager to involve other people in philanthropy and make a significant difference in our local community. Our mission is to promote cross-cultural exchange with an emphasis on dance, performing arts, and music that allows a greater understanding of the human experience.
