APIAVote祝福虎年春節快樂

 

 
Happy Lunar New Year!
  From the APIAVote family to yours, we wish you and your loved ones a wonderful Lunar New Year!
  Lunar New Year is celebrated in China and much of Asia, including Korea, Vietnam, and Malaysia, as well as the global Asian diaspora. The holiday has several origin stories, depending on the country, but the holiday has always been a time for celebrating the new year, seeing loved ones, feasting, and honoring ancestors.
  Lunar New Year falls on the second new moon after the Winter Solstice, and is usually celebrated for multiple days. Every culture celebrates Lunar New Year in their own unique way, with different kinds of foods and traditions that symbolize prosperity, abundance and togetherness. One such tradition is giving red envelopes, known as “hong bao” in Mandarin, with money to young children by elders. Celebrants may also wear red or display red and gold decorations — colors that denote good fortune.
   2022 is the Year of the Tiger. It is said those born in the Year of the Tiger tend to be brave, strong-willed, pioneering, outspoken, playful, enthusiastic, and fearless.
   As we usher in the new year, we are hopeful and looking forward to building on the progress we made in 2020 and 2021 and continue working to empower and mobilize our Asian and Pacific Islander communities in electoral and civic participation.
