Korean Churches for Community Development (KCCD), soon to be Faith and Community Empowerment (FACE) would like to invite you to be a Community Ambassadors for our 10th National Lighting the Community Summit in Los Angeles, CA which will be held from November 2, 2017 to November 4, 2017 to help spread the word of this important opportunity to your network. Last year, many individuals contributed in this process, but we want to formally recognize those who will be helping this year.
The Summit's theme is "Shining Our Light: Building Bridges, Building Communities, Building Trust" The goals of the conference are witness, partnership, and advocacy. As Asian American and Pacific Islander Christians, our voice is absent in the public sphere and in turn, the needs of our community and opportunity for leadership and contribution are often overlooked. The Summit will provide opportunities for churches, nonprofit organizations and business leaders to raise our visibility, learn how to leverage resources, access funding opportunities available through government, corporations and foundations, and increase our impact and witness through successful partnerships. Although leadership exists in our community, we are not known because we have seldom been given the platform for visibility. This conference will be one vehicle where we can mobilize, unite and strengthen our voice and presence.
As a Community Ambassador, we ask for the following:
- Invite personally via email minimum 10 individuals and copy KCCD (
hyepin@gmail.com,
info@kccd3300.org) to the Summit (
