From the Collection of Embracing Our Differences, Long Island: A Project of the Suffolk Center on the Holocaust, Diversity & Human Understanding, Inc. The National Center for Suburban Studies at Hofstra University® Thursday, October 22, 2009 Champion Sponsor Celebration of Suburban Diversity 2009 Welcome Dear Friends, Welcome! On behalf of the Celebration of Suburban Diversity 2009 Committee and the National Center for Suburban Studies at Hofstra University - on behalf of everyone who believes that diversity is essential to our social and economic survival - welcome to a unique night of artistry, honors and ideas. The two of us come from different cultures, but the Celebration started in our hearts with a shared idea - to "walk the talk" at the "Diverse Suburb" conference to which this banquet is con- nected. We'd hoped to do this by bringing together the racial, ethnic, religious and other groups literally changing the face of Long Island. And so we have: Just look around you at the new sub- urbia. We found the community's enthusiasm for "celebrating" diversity to be so strong that we were able not only to cover our costs but to generate funds for scholarships and research into diversity- related issues. We were thrilled to find sponsors for the High School Diversity Essay Writing Contest and for academic studies of the new immigrants transforming suburbia. And with your generous support, we hope to hold this event for years to come. Our stellar group of co-chairs have helped enormously.
