Argentinean Manitoban Association

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Argentinean Manitoban Association (AMA) is a non-profit organization, incorporated in the province of Manitoba, Canada.

The Argentinean community steady growth in Manitoba prompted the creation of AMA. Its three main goals are:

To generate participation and support for and among Argentineans living in Manitoba.
To promote Argentinean tradition and culture.
To support prospective Argentinean and Latin American (Spanish Speakers) immigrants.

Since its incorporation in the year 2000, AMA has achieved more visibility in the Manitoban community. This allowed the association, in a very short time, to participate at Folklorama 2002, 2003, 2005 and 2007, the most important multicultural festival in Canada's Midwest.
