Description

Founded in 1979, the Vietnamese Students Association at the University of Houston (UH VSA) is a cultural, educational non-profit student organization that strives to preserve and promote the Vietnamese culture, give back to the community, and encourage unity among people of all identities and backgrounds by offering various cultural, leadership, service, and social events and opportunities to Vietnamese and non-Vietnamese students alike. UH VSA is a branch of the Union of Vietnamese Students Associations - South Region (UVSA South), which is based in Arlington, TX and earned its non-profit status in 2014 for the arts, culture, and humanities.

We are requesting sponsorship/in-kind donation for our 15th Annual Vietnamese Extravaganza (VEX) charity auction and talent show set to take place on Saturday, February 15, 2025 from 6-9pm at the University of Houston - Main Campus that serves to promote Vietnamese culture and raise funds for non-profit organizations benefiting the community and/or the arts and humanities. Each year, a new non-profit is selected at our national conference, known as Union of North American Vietnamese Student Associations (UNAVSA) Leadership Conference, which encompasses all Vietnamese Student Association chapters across the United States. This year, 100% of proceeds will go toward the Vietnam Health Clinic (VHC), a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization dedicated to students’ leadership and professional development and improving healthcare access and services to under-resourced populations and children.

Your company will be recognized for its commitment to education, social responsibility, cultural preservation, health, and community support, and your contribution will be acknowledged on our event t-shirt and receive social media publicity on our Instagram/Facebook page and official website (via company logo) as a thank you for the donation. We are also open to any other suggestions or wishes you may have to recognize your contribution.
