We Could Not Have Done It Without YOU!
Our 2023 Lantern Festival & Chinese New Year Culture Fair on February 11th was a huge success! We organized a total of 20 activities and games, hosted 10 business vendors, enjoyed 10 live performances, savored 15 delicious traditional Chinese dishes, and awarded 35 raffle prizes. Around 100 individuals contributed to the event as organizers, volunteers, or performers. Alongside Chinese American families from the local area, over 450 guests from diverse cultural backgrounds and communities filled the stadium. None of this would have been possible without all of YOU!
We are deeply grateful for the overwhelming support from many of the businesses and individuals in the Western Massachusetts community for our event. The picture accompanying this article lists all the sponsors who generously donated to the festival. We take pride in being part of the Western Mass. community, surrounded by people with such generosity and giving spirits. It's a testament to how our uniqueness can unite rather than divide us.
