The South Asian Lesbian & Gay Association of New York City (SALGA) serves to promote awareness, tolerance, acceptance, empowerment and safe spaces for sexual minorities and people of all gender identities, who trace their heritage to South Asia or who identify as South Asian. Our mission is to enable community members to establish cultural visibility and take a stand against oppression and discrimination in all its forms.  We pledge to encourage leadership development, provide multi-generational support, work towards immigration advocacy, address health issues such as HIV / AIDS, and foster political involvement in the interest of creating a more tolerant society.

Saturday 1/30/2010 - SALGA Volunteer Meetup

Posted: January 4th, 2010 | Author: NB | Filed under: Blog, Events, News |

SALGA is starting off 2010 with a big push for more volunteer involvement from the community!  Our new Volunteer Coordinator would like to meet all potential volunteers, get to know you, find out more about your interests and speak with you about particular areas within SALGA that you may be interested in volunteering for.

In addition, you will have a chance to meet coordinators that represent core SALGA competencies such as Communications, Support, Political Outreach and Events.  Each coordinator will give you specific information in his or her respective area of work.

This event will be a great way to learn more about SALGA and to network in a warm, comfortable and safe environment.

The Volunteer Meetup will be held at a private residence.  Please RSVP today by confirming your attendance so we can plan for the appropriate number of people.  Once we receive your RSVP, we’ll make sure to send you the meeting location.
