Message From The President

On behalf of the leadership, I welcome you to Asante Professionals Club – USA (APC-USA). Thank you for visiting our website. I bring you warm greetings from His Royal Majesty Otumfuo Osei Tutu II, Sovereign King of the Asante Kingdom (Asanteman) in Ghana, West Africa and the life patron of Asante Professionals Club.

APC-USA is a 501 (c) (3) nonprofit organization committed to the economic and social development of the Ashanti Region in Ghana, West Africa. We leverage the skills, knowledge, and talents of Ghanaian professionals of Asante origin living and working in the United States to support the development agenda of the Asantehene.

The Asante Kingdom, centrally located in the middle belt of Ghana, extends from Ashanti region to Ahafo, parts of Bono, Bono East and Volta Regions. The Asante Kingdom contains the largest deposit of gold in Africa, and the bulk of Ghana’s cocoa is grown in the Kingdom. Manufacturing, agricultural production, trade, and services are key economic activities in the Kingdom, with personal services accounting for 85% employment among the economically active population.

APC-USA works to support His Royal Majesty’s vision to make the Asante Kingdom a contemporary 21st Century State by modernizing the region’s economy. We identify and align social and business opportunities with His Majesty Otumfuo’s developmental agenda for Asanteman, and support overall development of the region by coordinating investor and donor activities across various sectors of the regions’ economy.

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 blessings 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.

We invite you to bring your talents, experience, and investment ideas to help spur economic development and elevate quality of life for the people of Asanteman. When you are looking for a place to invest, look no further than the Asante Kingdom – the gateway to Ghana. I urge all of you to help APC-USA lift the face of Asante and Ghana through investment Partnership and kind donations for a great cause.

Again, welcome to Asante Professionals Club- USA

Warmly,

Barbara Acheampong, President
