The Women’s Resource Fair is an annual event, sponsored by local area individuals and organizations. The one-day fair is designed to assist San Diego’s women in need, including homeless and battered women and children, by addressing their need for many basic services, which include medical assistance, services for their children, legal services, information regarding employment opportunities, along with counseling for battered women and assistance with public benefits. This year the Fair will be held at the San Diego Community Concourse on Saturday, March 1, 2008.

The Fair needs volunteers to help provide childcare. Last year, childcare was provided for over 150 children, ranging in age from one to twelve years of age. Volunteers are needed to work at the fair as runners, registrars and sitters. There are full day and half day shifts available from 8:00-4:00p.m., 8:00-12:00p.m., 10:00-2:00p.m., and 12:00-4:00p.m. Lunch and parking is provided for all volunteers. This fair is an amazing opportunity for the women who participate and the volunteers who make it happen.

KABA-SD is assembling a group of officers, board members, and KABA-SD members to volunteer. Please consider volunteering for this worthwhile event. It will be an opportunity to meet other KABA-SD members and contribute to a worthy cause. Please email KABA.SD@gmail.com by February 25, 2008 if you plan to join our group, and for which shift(s).

The Hon. Tammy C. Ryu is the first Korean-American woman to be appointed a judge in the history of the State of California. She was appointed to the Los Angeles Superior Court in August 2002.

Please join us as Judge Ryu shares her experience on how she became a judge, and the reasons for some of her career choices along the way. She will also discuss the challenges she faced both as a Korean-American attorney, and as a female attorney.
