South Asian Family Association

The South Asian Family Association (SAFA) is a non-profit organization dedicated to highlighting the South Asian community and culture.

Our goals are:

- to promote positive images of the South Asian community
- enhance cross-cultural understanding
- empower families to maintain their heritage while embracing Canadian culture.

Some of the ways we have accomplished these goals include:

- organizing Indian festivals (including our annual summer India Live festival and Diwali functions)
- providing annual scholarships to high school students who have demonstrated excellence in academics and community service
- holding International Women's Day forums and Mothers & Daughters dinners
- running youth summer camps
- organizing health fairs for the South Asian community.
