Why celebrate African Australians?

As a result of this journey and the many wonderful achievements, it was imperative that we join hands as a community. To acknowledge outstanding members making great contributions to Queensland and to the services of people and organisations and the full support, participation of our members across these wonderful state. We have been able to achieve this through an awards ceremony held at state level annually and a national event every three years.
