My Nonprofit Reviews

I've been to various Pacific Islander festivals over the years and Tafesilafa'i Inc. is different from all others for its focus is bringing the community youths together to engage and share its culture, language and customs through songs and dances of the Pacific Islands. The City of Long Beach is fortunate to have a faith based non-profit orgnization which hosts an annual festival to promote Pacific Islander's as peaceful loving people and is a great asset to Long Beach communities. This year's festival theme was "Talita Kumi" or "Heal the Wolrd". It's Leader's Dinner Keynote Speaker was Ms. Merrill Crump who is a transgendered woman who beat HIV. It's unheard of for any faith based organization to provide a platform to discuss such issues in the public forum. So Tafesilafai, Inc. should be greatly commended for its courage and support coupled with its sincere goal to promote healing within its communities. I highly recommend this Tafesilafai Pacific Islander Festival to anyone who is interested in learnin about the Samoan and Pacific Islander people. Thank you!
