The Asian Women’s Resource Center’s (AWRC) Gum Moon Women’s Residence celebrates their 25th anniversary. The annual benefit dinner was hosted by the Far East Cafe. The AWRC is a ministry of the Methodist Church and was created to meet the needs of women and children providing skills, empowerment, and building up of the self during transitions in their lives.

The benefit dinner is held every year to raise funds for the Center. Contributions through purchasing tables, live auctions, silent auctions, raffle tickets, and purchasing merchandise throughout the dinner help in reaching the needs to funding the organization.

The night consisted of a couple performances by local groups (singing, skits, cultural dances), an awards ceremony with dignitaries and sponsors, a fashion show by Orange Caterpillar (Peter Lou) and Max Nugas (represented by Doris Him Grover), and all the fundraising activities.
