AANHPI Nonprofit Roundtable | November 2024

Attention AANHPI-identifying nonprofit professionals!

Whether you are a first-generation, 1.5-generation, second-generation, third-generation AANHPI immigrant/refugee or if your family has been living in America for decades, as an AANHPI-identifying individual, you likely have much experience navigating the beautiful differences and complexities of American, Native Hawaiian, Pacific Islander and Asian cultures. Come meet other AANHPI-identifying nonprofit professionals who have faced similar life experiences, and learn about the special ways each of us have bridged these various cultures. Cuisine is such a central part of AANHPI culture, so bring a cultural dish to share during this Thanksgiving season!
 
Session Outcomes: During the Thanksgiving season, AANHPI-identifying attendees will build bonds with other AANHPI-identifying nonprofit professional peers over cuisine, which is an incredibly important part of AANHPI culture. Thanksgiving is a uniquely American holiday that is typically not celebrated in some of the cultures of many AANHPI-identifying individuals’ families of origin. Many AANHPI-identifying individuals living in America have had to uniquely bridge the celebrations of American, Native Hawaiian, Pacific Islander and Asian holidays. Every day, AANHPI-identifying individuals are challenged to embrace the unique norms, traditions, paradigms and perspectives of the often vastly differing cultures.
