Benefits of Supporting
the AAARI Annual Gala
1. Exposure to 400+
attendees at the Gala -
printed program
acknowledgements
distributed to attendees
who represent not just
themselves but many
other organizations.
2. Gala journal ads
appear in the bound copy
of the proceedings of
AAARI’s earlier annual
conference that are
distributed to all Gala
attendees and to the
200+ participants,
panelists, sponsors and
awardees who attended
the conference and
hundreds of
community-based
organizations and civic
leaders. This year’s
conference topic was
entitled “Asian American
Women.” The bound
proceedings are not a
simply a memento of the
Gala, but a permanent
reference that will be
used again and again.
3. Table sponsors are
listed on AAARI’s
website which reaches
thousands of faculty,
staff and students
within CUNY, and
academic, business,
civic and community
leaders and
organizations outside of
CUNY.
4. The Gala receives
extensive coverage in
the Asian American
ethnic press.
