The organization has  sponsored   many social and cultural events throughout the years.  We have been involved with numerous community groups highlighting our unique culture. Through our newsletter and website we have attempted to educate, to publicize and to communicate our goals, objectives, and activities.

We have also provided school supplies to four schools on the Islands of Brava, Boa Vista, São Tiago and Fogo to support students in their education.  Our organization has responded to special requests for financial aid to assist in obtaining medical supplies for hospitals on these islands.

With the establishment of the “Tiny Lopes Scholarship Fund”, academic scholarships have been awarded each year to many deserving students throughout the United States.
