APIAVote National Debrief

4/5/2013

37 Comments

 

By Kelvin Vuong
Treasurer, APIAVote-Michigan

We just wrapped up a national debrief and retreat with APIAVote National partners. All of the many organizations that came together from throughout the US (see the list below) really highlighted the power of the AAPI voice and the need to ensure the we all have a voice at the table. Though we come from all different backgrounds, we share a common identity as integral parts of American society.

From organizations just starting with electoral engagement last year to those continuing on for the umpteenth year, there was much to learn from all of our partners and allies. Innovative uses of social media and traditional grassroots organizing increased the community's presence throughout the US. Some key learnings that we at APIAVote-Michigan will be and have been grappling with and were lifted up at the retreat are:

1) Elections are a cycle, but there really is no start or end. Though we really gear up our efforts during election years, we need to think about how we engage and maintain relationships with our communities
throughout the year. At APIAVote-Michigan we're working to expand our program. Later this month on April 16, we'll be sharing the results of our Needs Assessment Project. RSVP now.

APIAVote-Michigan plans on continuing our voter engagement efforts in targeted Southeast Michigan municipal elections in 2013 to continue the momentum heading into the 2014 midterm elections.

2) Our community has great leaders and leadership potential, and we need to foster this and develop potentials for leadership. If we aren't going to be fostering our young people and engaging them to participate civically in society, who will?  At APIAVote-Michigan, we hold annual youth leadership trainings to do just that. Know someone who would be great, tell them now or sign up here.  

3) We need to not be afraid to ask for resources. Electoral work is critical to ensuring that we have a voice, and it's not free to do this work. We need support from our communities. Whether it be time, money, or in-kind donations, we need your support. So how about it? Can you donate $25 and become a member of APIAVote Michigan right now?


As a new member of the APIAVote-Michigan Board of Directors, I'm in awe of the work that we have done and am excited about the work we continue to do and will do in the years to come. I hope you will join
us on this journey!

trying to
get a loan on the internet and was scammed the sum of $3,600 i
became so
desperate in getting a loan from a legit loan lender online who will
not
add to my pains, then i decided to contact a friend of mine who
recently
got a loan online, we discussed about the issue and to our
conclusion she
told me about a woman called Mrs Lovene Wright who is the C.E.O of
Lovene finance firm (USA)
Loans So i applied for a loan sum of (78,000.00USD) with low
interest rate
of 2%, so the loan was approved easily without stress and all the
preparations where made concerning the loan transfer and in less
than
two(2) days the loan was deposited into my bank so i want to
advice any one
i need of a loan to quickly contact her via:
lovenefinancefirm638@yahoo.com or call them on +18168655025
she does not know am doing this i pray that God will bless her for
the good
thing she has done in my life.
