Dear Friends,

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

It’s time to shop for the Holidays!  I'm excited to share with you a web portal that can help raise money for VAALA (Vietnamese American Arts & Letters Association), a community-based, 501 (c)(3) non-profit Vietnamese American art organization.  Anytime  you search or buy a product online, instead of going directly to the website that you normally shop, you would go through VAALA's web portal by signing up as a customer.  You can find more than 3000 partner stores that you are already familiar with such as Walmart, Target, Home Depot, Best Buy, Buy.com, etc.  The nice thing about this web site is that you can get 2 - 35% cash back on qualified stores.  Not only that, if you invite your friends or family to shop on this web portal, you'll get 1/2% cash back on any purchases that they make. So not only will you be supporting the Vietnamese American community, but you will be saving money as well.

This is VAALA's web portal.

 And please don’t forget, VAALA’s Holiday Fundraiser is on Saturday, December 10, 2010 from 5pm-9pm at VAALA Cutural Center, 1600 N. Broadway, Santa Ana, CA 92706.

We need your support in order to carry out many artistic activities for the communities such as the biennial Vietnamese International Film Festival (ViFF), the annual Moon Festival Children’s Art Contest, the smART Program which provides free art workshops to youth organizations, exhibitions, lectures, plays, recitals, and many more!  Please visit www.vaala.org for more information.

Thank you for your continued support!

 Cheers,

Ysa Le
