Who We Are
Caribico is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization advancing the holistic development of the Caribbean as a global civilization. We organize Caribbean students, professionals, and allies of the cause into a network of chapters at universities and in cities worldwide. Every chapter runs the same twelve-event annual calendar. Every member becomes part of a movement that operates across diaspora capitals and the region itself.
The Caribico Year
Twelve months. Twelve events. Every chapter, every member, the same calendar. The shared rhythm that makes Caribico a network and not a directory.
SEPTEMBER
The Helm
The year begins. New members are pinned with the year's limited edition Caribico pin and welcomed into the chapter for the work ahead.
DECEMBER
The Recognition
The chapter closes the fall semester with a chosen-format gathering and on-camera mini-interviews that become the network's spring marketing reel.

The Stand
Every Caribico chapter on the planet shows up on the same day for the same cause, making the Caribbean visible from hundreds of campuses at once.

A major Caribbean figure addresses the entire network through a virtual event.

Every chapter performs two hours of community service during the same designated week in late October, partnered or self-run.
