to narrow the cultural, social, and communication gap,
and to minimize any inconvenience or difficulty they
may have. Moreover, the center hopes to help restore
the confidence of our seniors citizens and to encourage
them utilizing and developing their superior education,
knowledge, and expreience so that they can better serve
this community.
All senior citizens are sincerely invited to partic-
ipate in this meaningful party and to say "Kun Key Fa
Choi" together.
