Yesterday we celebrated our 6th Annual Citizenship

Yesterday we celebrated our 6th Annual Citizenship Celebration! It was a powerful reminder of the journeys our communities go on! From inspiring stories to joyous moments, we came together to honor those taking their first steps as citizens and reaffirming our commitment to an inclusive future. Many of these new citizens expressed their excitement to be voting for the first time in this year’s general election, eager to get out the #DesiVote!

Grateful to everyone who made this event possible—our incredible staff, partners, and of course, the new citizens we celebrate! 🇺🇸💙

Here’s to more milestones and memories ahead. ✨
