NORTH AMERICA SUKUTA ASSOCIATION BRIDGING COMMUNITIES

 On the heels of the July 4th,  2007 celebrations, our enthusiastic citizens gathered  in Atlanta, Georgia to discuss the draft bye-laws for the proposed formation of a not-for-profit organization. The meeting approved the charter that established The Gambia Sukuta Association of the United States (GAMSUK- USA). 

Six months later, GAMSUK-USA was beset with persistent difficulties in organization and outreach in the different states and regions. It was therefore disbanded. It was not until 2016 that our citizens galvanized once again through virtual engagements. They adopted a new Constitution on  September 20th, 2016 establishing the North America Sukuta Association,  dba NASUA as a public charitable organization. 

Our primary mission is to actively pursue and promote the welfare and well-being of our members, including every person of Sukuta descent, through a spirit of unity, collaboration and a network of opportunities and engagement that seek to inspire generations to fully participate in social, economic and development transformation of Sukuta and The Gambia. 

Our Purpose & Objectives

. Strengthen our common bonds as one family of the same national origin.

. Foster understanding and relationships through social, cultural and national events and programs. 

. Provide financial, economic and moral support in the event of emergency such as death or undue hardship. 

. Mobilize resources in furtherance of the mission of the Association. 

. Support educational, health and Socio-developmental projects in Sukuta and The Gambia at large. This may be in partnership with other organizations within and outside The Gambia that share our common values and principles.
