This is the first time since COVID-19 that the event was again held in-person.

The Keynote speaker was Kyung-Bok Yoon, the President of the Korean-American Community Foundation of New York, who shared some of his experiences growing up amidst prejudices against people of color.

Chairman Yoon noted that his "childhood experiences enabled me to support community organizations and effectively provide resources according to the needs of the organizations… It will be easier if we all work together to help those who are left behind." He concluded that "We must join forces for the greater good of our next generation."

At the subsequent awards ceremony, Fairfax County Health Department Director Addo- Ayensu received the Public Service Award, and attorneys Minji Kim and Sarah Tae received the Community Service Award.
