The Indo-American Cultural Foundation of Central New Jersey (IACFNJ) represents a 20-year commitment to unity, cultural pride, and community service in the Dayton, NJ area. Founded by American citizens of Indian origin, the organization brings together families and individuals of South Asian heritage while welcoming others who share an appreciation for Indian culture and traditions.
At its core, IACFNJ is driven by a mission to strengthen the community through meaningful events and activities that foster cultural and social involvement. The foundation extends its impact beyond celebrations—it actively supports local fire and police departments, assists senior citizens, and invests in the next generation through educational scholarships for Indian students in local schools. Through essay competitions and collaborative programs with school PTOs, IACFNJ demonstrates its dedication to giving back and involving younger community members in service.
What sets IACFNJ apart is its authentic approach to cultural preservation. Rather than existing in isolation, the organization intentionally blends the best of Indian heritage with the values of its adopted country. The foundation has built strong relationships with local government bodies, businesses, and civic organizations throughout Central Jersey, creating a network of mutual support. With life memberships available for individuals and families, IACFNJ invites all Central Jersey residents to become part of a welcoming community that celebrates tradition, builds connections, and strengthens the social fabric of the Dayton region.
