MAPID + Two Minutes to Save Lives

Wednesday, October 27, 2010

Just got this sent into my inbox and wanted to make sure and get it out before this week completely swallows me whole (hopefully I taste okay though).

The API community will come together October 31, 2010 at 10-5pm at MAPID Studio 4789 Vineland Ave #110; North Hollywood, CA 91602 to give “Two Minutes to Save Lives.”

The API community will lend their voice to PSAs on

a. Preventing gay teen suicide “APIs for the Trevor project-“It Gets Better”
b. Preventing Anti-Asian violence
c. Get out the API Vote

Spurred on by the recent tragic loss of gay teens due to bullying as well as the rash of anti-Asian violence in Philadelphia and the history of low voter turnout by APIs, Pan Asian Community Together was formed.

Working in less than a week to organize the event, Ken Choy of MAPID and Kelvin Han Yee contacted directors to helm the PSAs which will include recognizable faces of the API community as well as all those who wish to lend their voices to these campaigns.

All those in the API community are welcome to give “Two Minutes to Save Lives” October 31, 2010 at 10-5pm at MAPID Studio 4789 Vineland Ave #110; North Hollywood, CA 91602.
Participants should get confirmation from ken@mapid.us.
