About APC-USA
Asante Professionals Club- USA (APC-USA) was established May 2019 in direct response to Otumfuo’s vision to bring together professionals of Asante origin all over the globe to support the development agenda of Asanteman. To this end, our branch of APC is registered and recognized in the USA as a legal 501(c) (3) nonprofit organization focused on leveraging the skills, knowledge, and talents of Asante professionals to support Otumfuo’s Ten Development Plan.
APC-USA is currently focused on the design and implementation of healthcare and education programs, two critical segments of Otumfuo’s Development Plan, and we continue to seek opportunities to engage and partner with individuals and institutions to further our programmatic goals. His Majesty Otumfuo’s recognition of APC-USA has provided a powerful foundation of support as we mobilize resources in the United States and work to actualize His commitment to improving social and economic lives across the Asante Kingdom.
