Telem Center for the African Child, Inc (“Telem”) is a NYC based nonprofit organization that provides cultural, educational and recreational programs throughout the year for children of African descent to explore and celebrate their heritage.
Description of role
Telem depends on the support of its members. When you join Telem today, you will help us nurture self-possessed and confident African youth who can serve as cultural ambassadors that effect change in their local communities and, reach out to other communities to increase understanding and tolerance in this diverse society.
