On June 3, 2018 the Empowered Arab Sisterhood at the University of California, Riverside (UCR) was officially chartered as the Epsilon chapter of Epsilon Alpha Sigma at their first annual Remembering the Refugees banquet!
Their first banquet was a wonderful success, as they raised over $10,000 for Friends of Kayany, bringing our 2018 contributions to $37,000. The night was filled with various musical performances, including an oud performance from Peter Hanna and a Dabke number from their fellow student organization, the Lebanese Social Club.
