Fun Times While Making a Difference

AnewAmerica will be honoring and celebrating its entrepreneurs on August 13th, 2015 from 5:30 to 8:30 pm at the Kaiser Center Roof Garden in Downtown Oakland! Our clients have put in a year of hard work to grow their microbusinesses - that's why we hold an annual exposition where they can all gather and showcase their amazing products and services. We want to make the event a success and we need your help to do it!

The event is not a traditional sit-down dinner - guests get walk around, mingle and sample many different cuisines prepared by our client vendors. Before and after our short program, there will be a festive marketplace with food and entertainment. We will also have prizes and a silent auction with prizes.
