Please show your support of our organization and recognize our efforts by taking only a few seconds (literally) to vote for KABA-SD. Please click here to access the ballot.

We look forward to continuing our dialogue with the Korean-American community of San Diego and we thank you very much in advance for your anticipated, continued support.
** KABA-SD just learned that the screenings for the movie have changed on Friday night. The two screenings are now at 7:45 and 9:45. As a result, we have pushed our Happy Hour back. Happy Hour will now start at 6 p.m. at Confidential so that we can attend the 7:45 screening. Sorry for any inconvenience. **
Please join KABA-SD in supporting the San Diego Asian Film Foundation.
On Friday, May 29, 2009, KABA-SD will host drinks and tapas at Confidential, 901 4th Avenue, 6:00 p.m. from 5:00-6:30 p.m.

Asian Americans are known as the “model minority” but do they fail to rise beyond a certain level? Are there cultural misunderstandings or values that are at odds with the American work place? Come hear from speakers from varied practices of the law and outside of the law as to how Asian Americans can use their strengths to penetrate the so-called “Bamboo Ceiling.”
