Community Members at Fundraiser Event for Hurricane Katrina

In 2005, shortly after Hurricane Katrina, a group of Long Beach Cambodian leaders came together to raise money for the Red Cross to help the victims. From left to right are Peter Long, Sophois Sokhom, Sweaty Chap, Richear San, Sithea San, (names unknown). They knew what it is was like to lose everything and have to start again and were moved to help. The group raised close to $20,000 for the Red Cross.
