I am extending a special invitation to you to join Asian Americans for Equality (AAFE) at our 39th Annual Lunar New Year Banquet.
We will be celebrating the Year of the Snake. The banquet will be held Thursday, March 21, 2013 at 6:30 pm at Jing Fong Restaurant located at 20 Elizabeth Street in Manhattan.
The evening promises to be one filled with good food and great people as we recognize community leaders with the Dream of Equality Award:
The Honorable Joseph Crowley, U.S. House of Representatives, NY 14th Congressional District
The Honorable Ron Kim, NY State Assembly, NY 40th Assembly District
The Honorable Grace Meng, U.S. House of Representatives, NY 6th Congressional District (invited)
Mr. David Garza, Executive Director, Henry Street Settlement
Ms. Sheena Wright, President & CEO, United Way of New York City
In the coming year, AAFE will continue its leadership role by gathering local residents, business people, government officials, and other community stakeholders in the Asian American Community Development Conference being held on May 14, 2013. Staying true to our roots, we continue to advocate on the city, state, and national levels for better public policies on quality of life issues for immigrants.
Thank you for you continued support, and I hope that you can join us in the celebration. Should you have any questions regarding the event, or would not like to pay via credit card, please contact Douglas Lim at douglas_lim@aafe.org or (212) 964-2288.
Best regards,
