The Haitian-American Community Coalition of SW Florida is commemorating Haitian Heritage month by hosting a Haitian Heritage Family Fun Day on Saturday, May 13 from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. at The Rock Church of Fort Myers, 940 Tarpon St., Fort Myers. The mission of HACC is to promote social justice and human rights for Haitian Americans and to give a voice to this “indivisible demographic.”

There are a variety of activities including bounce houses for the children, music and dance performances, and a special presentation by Dr. Arthur Boyer on Haitian history.

HACC currently has 20 vendors who are participating and will be providing on-site services that day.

If you would like to be a vendor, please complete the attached vendor registration form. There is a $100 Vendor Registration fee. Please make checks payable to Haitian American Community Coalition of SW Florida. The mailing address is 3949 Evans Ave., Suite 304, Fort Myers, Florida 33901.

HACC is also in need of sponsorship donations to cover the cost of a pole tent and folding chairs. All sponsors will be recognized throughout the event.

Approximately 500 to 1,000 people will be in attendance.
