The African Entertainment Awards is made to showcase and promote the contributions that African businesses and individuals have contributed in the United States and also to create awareness of the issues affecting Africans Diaspora in the United States and the US territories. During the award show several causes will also be promoted. One of them will be pushing for the congress to create the congressional African Immigrant Caucus and asking for congress to dedicate September as African Immigrant Heritage month. The Caucus will be dedicated to voicing and advancing through the legislative process and issues affecting Africans in the United States and its territories.
