Current Mission Statement

[Umu Igbo Alliance]

Umu Igbo Alliance is a Chicago-based organization with a twofold
mission:

1) To provide a home for diasporic Igbos to meet, network, and form
lasting relationships, and

2) To maintain our culture, heritage and language within the Igbo
community.

Umu Igbo Alliance is a fully functional organization comprised of
Young Igbo Professionals, 18-35 years old. Our ranks consist of
doctoral, medical, law, nursing, pharmacy, architecture, and
engineering students, among various others, and also includes
professionals in those same and additional occupations. The
organization hosts several of the most upscale events in the
Chicagoland area where we meet, network and strengthen our cultural
ties. In addition to sophisticated social events, UIA has several
community service initiatives designed to assist Ndiigbo in Nigeria
and cultural events where we express immense pride in our Igbo
heritage.

Visit our Web site often for upcoming events, and activities. We hope
you’ll join with us to continue the path to success paved by our
forefathers.

Umu Igbo Kwenu!
