Message from the President

The Council of Pakistan American Affairs (COPAA) has been a cornerstone of our Pakistani community for over 20 years. Our organization has a long-standing reputation of promoting the learning and understanding of our civic duty as Pakistani Americans. We believe in building strong relationships with our prominent government and political leaders by hosting various events and open discussions with them throughout the year. We have also started the groundwork of our mentorship program to help create opportunities for our youth.

I am humbled by the support, encouragement and confidence the COPAA board members have shown me as I take on this new role. I would like to thank the Founding Members for their vision and all the past and present board members, who have worked diligently over the years. This organization’s success is based on the numerous volunteer hours, resources and dedication from our community.

With the united support of the current board and community members my goal is to continue to build on our vision. I encourage you to join us and become engaged with this wonderful organization.
