Our purpose is to preserve and uphold Ethiopia’s rich cultural values of love, hospitality, fairness, loyalty, and resilience, as well as its unique history, to pass these on to the next generation, and to integrate these values with American society.

ECASTL aims to strengthen its role in social, economic, and civic activities, foster mutual understanding, build relationships with similar associations to share experiences, and provide any kind of assistance to those in need—free of charge when possible, or with reasonable contributions as required.
