Supporting "Where The Brahmaputra Meets The Mississipi"
This was a fundraising event held in Richfield, Minnesota on April 7th 2012, organized by three AFNA volunteers Mili Dutta, Monika Kataky, and Ankita Deka, with the help of other volunteers and members of various communities.
The program was a presentation of Indian classical and modern dance with North American music and dance. It was symbolizing the confluence of cultures of the mystical east and the vibrant west. The objective was to raise $10,000 through ticket sales, silent auctions, and donations for the benefit of two NGOs in Assam, namely RVGN (Rashtriya Gramin Vikas Nidhi) and SPADE (Society for Promotion of Appropriate Development Efforts). The coordinator for this partnership with the event team was AFNA volunteer, Krishanu Kaushik.
