Inspired by our rich heritage in America, the IABA was founded to promote solidarity and friendship among all people, to promote the celebration of the Italian Experience in America, to sponsor, direct and participate in charitable, educational, religious, social and athletic activities which further the exemplary contribution of the Italian Experience in America. Since 2000, the club has provided direct aid to many Italian-American families in need. The group has awarded scholarships to deserving high school students in the greater Vineland area.
