2015 L.A. River CleanUp




Another good day for the great event!


2015 Los Angeles River CleanUp is well done with our community friends on 4/25 (Saturday) at our assigned section - Lower Compton Creek.  Thanks to all volunteers.  Taiwan Elite Alliance (優社) appreciates all partners, TUF, 聖東台灣同鄉會 and again a very meaningful way to celebrate Taiwanese American Heritage Week (台美人傳統週) with our Great Los Angeles residents.

It is a bit scary as FWY 710 has construction and only one lane is open in the morning... so we thought our friends might be late for the event...but actually almost everyone shows up on time.  This is a super spirit that we have counted on all these years.

The site is kind of 'very clean' compared with last few years.  Less foam cups and boxes, but still too many plastic bags and snack pouches.  Our volunteers even picked up 3 shopping carts that were dumped in the river. 

Enjoy our slides, hope to see everyone next year!

2.28-68th Commemorative Concert


Josephine and I, on behalf of Taiwan Elite Alliance (優社) volunteers, will like to share with you the videos of  2.28-68th Commemorative Concert.
 
We have tried to have our own composed Hakka songs to be included for all community audience, every program we try to have both Hanji and English subtitles for our audience, so no one will be missed out along the whole concert.  I bet you have enjoyed this one.

Hearty appreciation to our talented musicians, Half-Step Chorus, and our great volunteers. We are very grateful to our partner, the continuous support and sponsorship of TUF ( www.TUFUSA.org ). Another year's great production and the participation from our local community.

Special thanks to Freeman Huang for his video production and Chiuyen Peng for her photography.

We hope the day, 真理 自由介 臺灣介心靈日 will finally arrive.
