With our friends from The Asian American Chamber of Commerce, the Midwest Asian American Bar Association, YAPA is having our first volunteer event of the year cooking dumplings with the children of Dillon International.  The event takes place on Friday, February 17th from 6pm-9pm at Mandarin House which is located at 9150 Overland Plaza in Overland, MO 63114.  Special thanks to Max Tsai and to the staff at Mandarin House for coordinating this event.  If you are interested, please RSVP at info@yapastl.org by February 13th.  If anyone can bring hotpot equipment, that will be appreciated as well.  Dillon International will be bringing 15 children between 10 to 15 years old who are from India, China, and Korea.  They are eager to learn from us and about their own heritage.  Hope to see you there 15 minutes before the event starts.
