November 2021 Newsletter View this email in your browser Giving Thanks This Holiday Season As we enter the holiday season, we want to express our deep gratitude for you and all of our generous supporters who make our work possible. Thanks to you, under-resourced Korean Americans have been able to receive culturally competent mental health services, domestic violence support, legal assistance, and more - especially critical during this tumultuous past year.  In these next few weeks, we hope you have a chance to reflect on what you are grateful for this year. And, please don't forget to give your own heartfelt thanks to those who bring support and joy into your lives. With appreciation,  . Lina Park, Executive Director How We Can Make Meaningful Change Highlights from our 6th Annual Gala Congresswoman Marilyn Strickland, Congressman Andy Kim, and actor and activist Daniel Dae Kim joined World Affairs CEO Philip Yun during our sixth annual gala for a deeply personal and moving discussion about their own experiences with racism and how they became advocates for social change.    Click below for the full discussion.

KACF-SF's participatory grantmaking with the CGC process ensures our community has a voice in our investments and helps us better align our grantmaking with the needs of our constituency. We are grateful for these amazing volunteers who donated their time, talents, and skills. Stay tuned for the announcement of our 2022 grantee partners in December! Congratulations to Glenn Kim Newly Appointed Judge for Contra Costa Superior Court Governor Newsom has appointed Glenn Kim to serve as Judge in the Contra Costa County Superior Court! Glenn joined the Bay Area K-Coalition Town Hall in July to talk about how we as a community can work together for our collective safety. He has served as a Deputy District Attorney both in Alameda and Contra Costa Counties. We are proud to have such a civically minded Korean American in this leadership role.
