The Congressional Dinner and Honors were held at the
US Capitol on Tuesday, June 5, 2007. It was an evening that made us proud of
what Asians have done for this country and the world. Please click here for
details. The 2008 Congressional Honors will be held on September 12, 2008.
Please watch this site for details..
The
median household income for Asian Americans is higher than the national average. Asian
Americans make up 4.3% of the total U.S. population -- that’s about 12 million
people who identify themselves as at least part Asian. However, this number
represents an increase of 63% from the 1990 census, making Asian Americans the
fastest growing of all the major racial/ethnic groups in the U.S., in terms of
percentage growth. But in so many ways, the presence of Asian Americans is much
more prominent than even these numbers suggest.

- HELPING HANDS MISSION
- Lend a helping hand. Years after the tsunami and other
disasters in Asia, thousands of victims are still walking around in utter
hopelessness. Your help is needed now, more than ever. Thousands of children have been left orphaned or homeless.
People have lost, not only their loved ones, but their homes and means of
livelihood as well. We surveyed our members in Asia.

FRIENDSHIP CORPS
It is genuinely exciting to think about the power we have as leaders to
change attitudes and perspectives. Friendship has no limit and the joy and gains
of a unique friendship is boundless, if we are ready to share.
The purpose of Friendship Corps is to promote understanding, friendship and
tolerance among peoples of the world.
"I think the best way to handle the attacks of September the 11th is to fight
fear with friendship; is to fight fear with hope; is to remind people all around
the world we have much more in common than people might think; that we share
basic values -- the importance of family, and the importance of faith, and the
importance of friendship." - George W. Bush
"I have long believed, as have many before me, that peaceful relations
between nations requires understanding and mutual respect between individuals".
- -- President Dwight D. Eisenhower, Founder of People to People International
