ABOUT US
OVERVIEW OF THE AAHC
The American-Arab Heritage Council was established in 1980 by a small
group of concerned American Arab citizens in the Flint area. The AAHC
progressed as a non-political and non-sectarian grass roots organization
for American Arabs, and non-Arab Americans, in the community interested
in preserving Arabic heritage and culture.
For over 30 years, the AAHC has grown substantially through its
membership and services. The AAHC has become a community leader by
sponsoring numerous programs, delivering important services, and
assisting all people, regardless of religion, political ideology or national
origin.
