community & purpose
CACCE-GWAN — the Caribbean-American Chamber of Commerce and Enterprise for the Greater Washington Area Network — is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit headquartered in Washington, DC, uniting Caribbean and Caribbean-American businesses, nonprofits and entrepreneurs across the DMV.
Working in the Caribbean Community since 2005, we helped adopt June as National Caribbean-American Heritage Month in 2006 and started working with small businesses to help them succeed. We are now rebuilding and look forward to many years of guiding the DMV Caribbean Community to its shared success.
