Fundraising Dinner

Sa bai dii (hello) All.

First I would like to welcome back all NMC volunteers and members.

We are now back and already planning programs for the rest of 2012. This year will be another busy and hopefully with lots of fun for us as we are embarking on organising and holding our first International fund raising dinner and fashion show. We are currently at a planning stage, but I will inform you all of the progress and when the big day night will be.

We have also been asked by many people about holding more cooking workshops like the ones we produced in 2011. In response to those requests, we are looking into applying for funding so that we can start organising our next cooking workshops later in the year. If you wish to take part in the cooking demonstrations either by helping us coordinating the project, or helping us with the funding applications, or helping us promoting it, we would love to hear from you. You can either email us on talk2nmc@gmail.com or northsidemulticultural@gmail.com

Kind regards,



Seng McMahon
President/Coordinator, Northside Multicultural Community, inc.
