ABOUT US
Mission and Services
ECMAA- Ethiopian Community Mutual Assistance Association
ECMAA aims to coordinate resources and activities in the region to provide assistance where needed. These resources are in support of existing work in the community and are not an alternative. ECMAA also hopes to create strong community partnerships with organizations affiliated with the Ethiopian Community in the tri-state area by organizing the existing resources, skills, knowledge and experience in the community. It will leverage its formal non-profit, NY Dept. of State licensed status to raise funds and provide an infrastructure for sharing resources with those who’d most benefit from them.
