CarThe Ghana Caribbean Association (GCA)  was founded in 1964 out of the need to forge closer links with Ghanaians and peoples of the Caribbean.  It’s main objectives are:
 
·         To foster, preserve and expand cultural and social links between Ghanaians and Caribbean nationals.
 
·         To encourage the interchange between cultural groups and educational institutions in the two areas.
 
·         To create a better understanding among the youth of the two areas by such means as competitions, pen pal correspondence and exchange of ideas.
 
·         In the discretion of the Executive Committee, to donate to charities, disaster funds and cases of personal distress.
 
·         To assist in providing hospitality for visitors from Ghana to the Caribbean and from the Caribbean to Ghana.
 
Membership is open to all Caribbean nationals and persons of Caribbean descent  in Ghana, including those of  British, Spanish, French and Dutch heritage, and all Ghanaians with recognized ties with the Caribbean.
