Organizing Our Communities - Fundraising Gala

Dear Friends of KRC, we regret to inform you that the annual dinner that was scheduled for Thursday, November 7th at the Sheraton Park Anaheim Hotel is being rescheduled.  The staff and board are working on new transitions that require this rescheduling. Our national affiliate NAKASEC is building momentum on immigrant rights advocacy by leading a march to D.C. for the Supreme Court argument on the future of DACA.  This is part of the work KRC has helped to promote and we hope you will consider donating your 2019 dinner contribution to the ongoing work of KRC in Los Angeles. If you wish to have your donation returned, please feel free to contact events [at] krcla.org.

We are excited to extend an invitation for you to join NAKASEC's 25th Anniversary and KRC's 36th Annual Fundraising Gala - Organizing Our Communities: Cultivating a Transformative Future!

The annual dinner will take place on Thursday, November 7 at the Sheraton Park Hotel in Anaheim. The event is an important opportunity for our 300 friends and supporters to come together and celebrate our accomplishments and forge a powerful social, racial and economic justice agenda for the coming year. It is also an occasion that enables us to raise awareness and funds for its programs, campaigns and services.
