EBALDC’s 48th Anniversary Gala

August 19th, 2024

The East Bay Asian Local Development Corporation (EBALDC) celebrated its 48th year of service to the community. The anniversary was commemorated with a grand gala held at Preservation Park in Oakland, CA. The event was a testament to the unity and diversity of the community, with individuals, businesses, and organizations from all walks of life gathering in support of EBALDC's enduring mission to build neighborhoods that are healthy, vibrant, and safe.

The venue was adorned with large, vibrant posters showcasing the many initiatives that EBALDC spearheads. Among these were Teen Art Workshops, enabling the youth to express their creativity and ideas; Resident Leadership Cohorts, instilling leadership skills in community members; and Community News Reporters and Journalism, a program that gives voice to the stories of the community.

Live art unfolded before the guests' eyes, as an artist created a stunning painting of a phoenix - a symbol of rebirth and resilience. The soft, soothing melodies by a live harpist filled the air.

The night continued with a lively auction with all proceeds going back to support EBALDC’s work. Speakers took to the stage, sharing their experiences and reinforcing the importance of community solidarity. The event concluded on a high note with a sundae bar, offering the perfect sweet ending to the celebration.

The 48th Anniversary gala was a heartfelt celebration of EBALDC's ongoing commitment to the development and betterment of the community. A unique blend of culture, arts, and entertainment, the event served as a reflection of the diverse and vibrant community that EBALDC serves.
