American Hungarian Heritage Association The AMERICAN HUNGARIAN HERITAGE ASSOCIATION, INC., a nonprofit, tax-exempt organization, decided to do a membership drive and a fund raising. The AHHA, as its name says, is fulfilling the goal of keeping the Hungarian heritage alive among American Hungarians. Our gatherings, lectures and sponsored events serve this purpose. Our publication, the Magyar News, reflects our local Hungarian community, the on-going activities, and brings information into your homes. Our Hungarian churches, organizations, advertisers and many others participate in this publication to broaden contact with our community. Every year the A.H.H.A. awards scholarships to outstanding students, from our local Hungarian community, enrolled in higher education. This scholarship has been established in memory of Mary Katona, a previous president of our organization.

All our people doing work for A.H.H.A. are volunteers. As it happens to all organizations, we are looking for new volunteers to take on specific jobs. Consider participating in a good and noble cause. The language of communication in this country is English. To be able to reach any of the second, third or further generations, we find it very necessary to use English. Hopefully Hungarian parents, or grandparents, or mixed language marriages, will find this a helpful and enjoyable way to pass along their Hungarian heritage.
