AmCham “Giving Thanks” Dinner – An Evening to Celebrate Excellence in Community Impact!
Please join us to give thanks for all the blessings we enjoy here in Vietnam, and celebrate the traditions around Thanksgiving together with your fellow Americans and Vietnamese friends.
Enjoy a delicious traditional Thanksgiving dinner with fellow AmCham Vietnam members and friends, and representatives of the U.S. and Vietnamese government at the elegant Reverie Hotel. Spouses and significant others are welcome, too!
Thanksgiving is an annual holiday that Americans celebrate with family and friends on the fourth Thursday in November (this year November 26) to give thanks for the harvest and good fortune we have enjoyed throughout the year.
This year, we will show our appreciation for the Vietnamese government’s impressive management of the COVID outbreak, which has enabled our businesses to continue operations and kept our team members and families safe and healthy.
For the first year, as part of what we hope becomes an annual part of the Giving Thanks event, we also will devote a part of the event to celebrate the positive impact that AmCham Vietnam members have made to community and sustainable development in Vietnam. In particular, we will showcase important contributions many of our members have made in 2020 through innovative and impactful Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) programs, Environment, Social, and Governance (ESG) initiatives, and COVID-19 response projects.
You can register now to join the event. Moreover, consider becoming a sponsor of this meaningful holiday event!
To nominate your company’s ESG, CSR, and COVID-19 projects to be included in the Giving Thanks Members’ Showcase, please submit the form attached to [email protected] by noon Nov 20.
Form A is for recognition of CSR & ESG initiatives
Form B is for CSR & Corporate Citizenship Highlights
