About
The mission of Club Kreyol is to be missionaries of the Creole culture by bringing awareness, drawing interest, and illustrating its diversity to UCF and the surrounding community.
Club Kreyol (CK ) represents nine Creole-speaking nations (Haiti, St Lucia, Martinique, Guadeloupe, Dominica, Mauritius, Reunion Island, Seychelles and French Guiana) and works to preserve Creole culture in this and future generations, inform and share Creole culture with others, serve the community and assists student with their transition into the University system, whether they are incoming freshmen or transfer students.
CK has bi-weekly general body meetings and hosts exciting and enriching events! Socials, bowling, skating, community service, volunteering, study nights, Kompa/Zouk nights, cooking and dance workshops, talent shows, forums, road trips and so much more!!
Our most popular and well attended event is Soiree Kreyol. Soiree Kreyol or "Soiree" is a formal cultural banquet and fundraiser that brings the Orlando and Creole community together to experience a showcase of culture and delicious food ending with a night of dancing! Guests from all over Florida come to Orlando to enjoy Soiree.
One word that represents Club Kreyol is family. In all that we do, we value the importance of creating a comfortable atmosphere where students can make connections that help them succeed in their careers and in life. Family is the foundation of society and the foundation of Creole culture and everyone is welcome in the CK Family.
