Thank you for coming to the 21st Annual Families with Children from China Chinese New Year banquet and for making it a smashing success!

It was great to see familiar families, families who haven’t come in a few years and to meet new families! We had some of our traditional festivities; i.e., the DJ, East Wind Foundation Lion Dancers, the Miss Los Angeles Chinatown Queen and her court, the magician, and of course, the bubble wrap! This year we also had a few teen tables and a photo booth – both were a hit!

This year through the generosity of our members our opportunity drawings raised $795 for the One Sky Foundation. We had lots of prizes and lots of happy winners!

Members have expressed interest in a Heritage Day event. FCC-SoCal would love to organize this for our members but we need your help. We simply cannot do this without the help of volunteers. The event could feature Chinese traditions; i.e., food, crafts, musical instruments, calligraphy, language, dance, kung fu, etc. If you could share you talents or share the name of someone who would like to help with this event, please email us here.

In order to keep the organization going we are also looking for volunteers to chair or join one of the following committees: communications, website development, membership, and fundraising. Please reach out to Valerie or Kathy if you are interested in helping out.

Please join our Facebook page and private Facebook Group (FCC-SoCal Group) to get the most update-to-date information on events.

On behalf of FCC Board of Directors, Thank you!
