The purpose of the family picnic is
three-fold:
-
Fundraising
-
To provide a day of fun-filled activities and social interaction for
all of our members, their relatives, friends and associates.
-
To provide free health screen to the general public in association
with the national Institutes of health and Howard University
Hospital.
Frequency: This is an
annual event, which all of our members, friends and associates always
look forward to, and it is usually held in the summer.
Venue: It is usually held
at a public park and open to the public. In fact, because of the
family-friendly atmosphere the event usually portrays, visitors to the
park had always joined in the fun and are always welcomed.
Fundraising: While the
event is free and open to the public, we usually raise funds through the
sale of T-shirts, hats, and cultural artifacts. We also conduct auction
of donated items like cars, furniture, and clothing.
