CAUSE’s Summer Soirée is a reimagining of previous CAUSE Annual Galas. In its second iteration, the soirée continues to serve as the premier Asian and Pacific Islander (API) event for those interested in politics and community, boasting the largest attendance of API elected officials. The soirée also serves as the largest fundraiser of the year for CAUSE. Funds raised help sustain CAUSE’s many programs and services, which include leadership development programs for students and professionals, voter engagement, and multicultural collaboration. 300 guests are expected to attend this year — all of whom are dedicated to elevating the API community. This year’s Summer Soirée celebrates the accomplishments of API leaders throughout this challenging year. This year’s soirée falls also on CAUSE’s 30th year anniversary.
