African Students Association

The African Student Association (ASA) is a student organization composed of both graduate and undergraduate students at Seton Hall University whom are committed to embracing the African culture. ASA’s objectives include providing discussions with members during general meetings about the current issues in Africa; educating the Seton Hall community about the African Heritage through music, dance, literature, food, etc; and also hosting several fundraiser events for NGO’s such as the H.E.A.L. the Children Foundation [a Kenyan Orphanage], and the SANDJI group organization which is dedicated to empowering the youth of Africa for a better continent. ASA in 2008 established the ASA Dance Troupe because of the importance of dance within African traditions. Dance is regarded as a significant mode of communication and entertainment. The African Student Association provides the entire Seton Hall Community with a sense of understanding of all major features that make up the amazing continent of Africa.
