The Dominican American National Foundation (DANF) is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization based in Miami, Florida's diverse community of Allapattah. For over 25 years, DANF's mission has been to permanently infuse Dominican culture into the fabric of American society through the implementation of social programs that promote upward mobility, economic empowerment, and educational achievement. From its humble headquarters in the community of Allapattah in Miami, the foundation has executed both local and national efforts to generate awareness of the growing Dominican population and its needs in the US. Staying true to its mission, DANF has spearheaded such high-profile initiatives as the "White House Briefing of Dominican-American Leaders" Day at the White House in Washington, DC to address Dominican American social concerns and "Dominican Heritage Night" with the Miami Marlins at Marlins Park in Miami, FL to celebrate the beauty of Dominican cultural heritage. The foundation's initiatives are rooted in establishing cultural pride, while turning the communities it services into active contributors to their own success. DANF has garnered the recognition of institutions such as The Children's Trust, Miami-Dade County, and The Peacock Foundation for the qualitative and impactful programs it offers. Through DANF's many years of service, the organization has demonstrated a commitment to responding to the needs of the communities it serves. The foundation features a team of talented Dominican American professionals, both on its board of directors and in the front office. The team focuses on connecting with other professionals & leaders of similar backgrounds across various industries through professional development, as well as networking opportunities.
