African Community Education

Help African Community Education take on the #BlackPantherChallenge and send 60 African refugee youth to see Black Panther!!

African Community Education (ACE) is raising $2,200 to send 60 of our students to see Black Panther. ACE provides educational programming and support for African refugee and immigrant youth in Worcester, MA.

Our students come to the U.S. from Central and West African countries such as Ghana, Rwanda, and Liberia and many of our kids have never had the opportunity to see a movie in theaters. Seeing Black Panther will truly have a special impact on their lives. 

Please help us give them the unforgettable, empowering, and transformative experience of seeing their heroes come to life on the big screen in the inspiring setting of Wakanda.


As Frederick Joseph, founder of the #BlackPantherChallenge stated: “All children deserve to believe they can save the world, go on exciting adventures, or accomplish the impossible."

As we approach World Refugee Day, I am excited to be part of Forward Together, ACE’s annual spring peer-to-peer fundraising campaign. This initiative is more than just a fundraiser; it’s a heartfelt movement to build a stronger, more supportive community for immigrants and refugees of African origin. Together, we can share our stories and reflect on our journeys, recognizing what drives us and how we can support one another.

Fundraising can feel daunting, but I want to invite you to see it as an act of storytelling. Every dollar raised not only supports ACE’s mission but also connects us to the values we hold dear. Whether you choose to run a 5k, complete a reading goal, or simply spread the word about ACE, your involvement will uplift the lives of youth and adults in our community.

I am grateful for your support and am inspired by the collective spirit of our community. Together, let’s move forward, share our stories, and create opportunities for those who need it most.

I’m Rose Wine, and I love ACE! This spring, I invite you to join me in the Forward Together campaign, an initiative that aligns with our mission to support immigrants and refugees of African origin. As we approach World Refugee Day, let’s come together to reflect on how we move through life and what inspires us to keep going.

Fundraising might seem daunting, but it's truly an act of storytelling. By sharing our personal journeys and engaging with ACE's mission, we can connect more deeply with ourselves and our community. Whether you choose to run a 5k, set a reading goal, or simply share the ACE story, your efforts will help create opportunities for others to thrive.

Together, we can forge a stronger, more supportive community. I’m grateful for your involvement and support as we move forward together.
