It’s been a week, but we’re still riding the thrill of the evening! Thank you to everyone who joined us for SAYA’s Annual Gala on Saturday — over 400 community members came together to celebrate 29 incredible years of South Asian Youth Action! 💫 Because of YOU, we raised over critical funds to support programs, mentorship, and safe spaces where our youth can belong, grow, and thrive. 🙌🏽 We’re deeply grateful to our inspiring honorees, Beesham A. Seecharan and Anurima Bhargava, for reminding us what’s possible when community, imagination, and resilience come together. ✨ “SAYA is a space where our youth can say their dreams out loud... a space of refuge, of discovery, of community.” – Anurima ✨ “For decades to come, I want to collaborate with good people like you to realize the world we’ve all been dreaming of.” – Beesham Big love to our incredible hosts @sheetalsheth & @sendhil_rama, and unforgettable performers @paramsinghmusic, @solesofduende, and @biks408 for bringing the energy and joy. And a special thank you to our generous in-kind donors @esteelauder and @aavrani! Let’s keep building, together. 💛 (fb)
