Uniting the Congolese Community in Dallas-Fort Worth
CCDFWE brings together the Congolese diaspora in the DFW metroplex to preserve our rich cultural heritage, empower women and families, and build a thriving community far from home.
Who We Are

We are dedicated to preserving our Congolese cultural heritage, supporting new arrivals, empowering women, and creating a strong sense of belonging for every member of our community.
A Message From Our President
“La vie est le bien le plus précieux de l'homme, et elle est d'autant plus belle et plus riche lorsque nous avons la possibilité d'échanger avec autrui et de nous appuyer sur un support system sur lequel nous pouvons compter. Loin de notre pays et de nos familles biologiques pour certains, notre communauté représente justement ce soutien dont nous avons tous besoin.”
— Esperance Banguid, President
