Please join us at Bistro 63 on Thursday, July 24^th, for a celebration and presentation with our Iraqi Young Leaders program. The Iraqi Young Leaders program is a consortium run by Meridian International. funded by the US embassy in Baghdad, which brings 125 Iraqi undergraduates to 5 different US universities for 5 weeks each summer. In a private room in the back, the young leaders that came to UMass will give presentations on the history and culture of their home country, as well as present on a variety of topics. This will include what they learned in their program in the US, and the community service they took part in while they were here, including volunteering for the Amherst Senior Center and other activities. There will be a box for voluntary donations to the Senior Center at the door. Past events like these have included cultural music, and dancing. Food can be ordered, but is not complimentary. We look forward to seeing you there!
