Sankofa Center for African Dance and Culture- Changing the world through art
The Sankofa Center for African Dance and Culture is a California based charity fighting HIV/AIDS in Ghana, West Africa. S.C.A.D.C. partners with its sister charity there and uses traditional African dance, music, and drama merged with HIV/AIDS information to effectively educate village youths and adults about HIV/AIDS. Throughout our tour of cities, towns, and rural villages we teach people about how HIV/AIDS is transmitted and how to prevent the further spread. S.C.A.D.C. also offers free onsite rapid HIV/AIDS testing for our outreach community in Africa linking health education to access to medical care like medications to fight opportunistic infections and ART treatment, keeping those living with HIV/AIDS alive, productive, and hopeful members of their communities.
