Celebrating 25 Years of the Greenfield Intercultural Center

Dear Alumni,

Please join fellow Penn alumni and Greenfield Intercultural Center Director Valerie de Cruz in celebrating the 25th Anniversary of one of the University of Pennsylvania's most beloved resource centers:  the University of Pennsylvania’s Greenfield Intercultural Center (GIC).  For one day, in San Francisco, alumni from around the Bay Area are coming together to celebrate the GIC, and learn about programs and recent developments at the center.

We invite you to come meet Penn alums who were affiliated with the GIC during their time at Penn, as well as those who have been interested in the programs that the GIC has to offer; programs such as Alliance and Understanding, PACE, and the Franklin Community House.  The GIC also directly supports over 30 student organizations, including the United Minorities Council (UMC) and all of its constituent groups.  These many organizations call the GIC "home."  Under the office of the Vice Provost of University Life, the GIC staff and students play an integral part in the Penn administrative community.  Since leaving Penn, many Penn students associated with the GIC have moved on to have an incredible impact in the San Francisco Bay Area.  Enjoy delicious BBQ and a great view of the Bay, while you mingle with alumni and GIC staff and, and share stories that span a quarter century!

BAKAs Wine Tasting

For the past five years, various Korean American organizations in the Bay Area have put together a free wine tasting event at Fort Mason Center in San Francisco called BAKAs (Bay Area Korean Americans) Wine Tasting. We invite the greater Bay Area community to meet, network, and learn about various professional and civic Korean American and Asian American organizations.

This year's BAKAs wine tasting will be hosted by the Korean American Professional Society (KAPS), Korean American Bar Association (KABA), Korea Information Technology Network (KIN), Korean American Chamber of Commerce of San Francisco (KACC) and Korean American Society of Entrepreneurs (KASE).

Last year's BAKAs Wine Tasting event was a great success with over 400 people and 15 organizations in attendance. We anticipate a turnout of 500 or more this year with even more Korean-American and Asian-American organizations involved. The various community organizations participate to help raise awareness for various causes and to foster involvement in the community through this event.

This year's event will be held on Friday, September 18th at 6:30 pm. It will be free to paid members of the host organizations and $10 to the general public.

BAKAs is currently looking for corporate and personal sponsors, donations from wineries and wine distributors, and donations for raffle prizes. As a non-profit organization, all donations will be tax deductible.

This is a great event that promises to bring visibility and awareness to the diverse number of KA organizations in the Bay Area.
