Identity Statement:
The Sudanese Cultural League of Edmonton (SCLE) was established in 2008 as a non-profit organization based in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. It is the first to welcome and help new comers to community. The League offers a place for Sudanese families to gather, be supported emotionally and spiritually, learn from each other and be bound together by the common belief that all gaols can be achieved by working together.
