The objective of such events is to foster friendships among all Americans by bridging the cultural and religious gap. Open house 7-18-2010-19

The AMV Foundation is striving to create a culture of peace, acceptance, mutual respect and harmony. Together we can build an inclusive, peaceful and beloved nation for us, our kids and their kids.
