Case Study: National Asian Pacific Center on Aging

NAPCA logo.

The National Asian Pacific Center on Aging (NAPCA) is the leading national advocacy organization committed to preserving the dignity, well-being and quality of life for Asian and Pacific Islanders in their senior years. Funds raised at the annual NAPCA Seattle Benefit Dinner and Concert support the programs NAPCA provides.

In 2005, FPN worked with NAPCA to create a very successful inaugural event and built on that success to produce the 2006 event. Both events took place at The Triple Door in Seattle, WA. Guests dined on cuisine from Wild Ginger Restaurant and listened to music from internationally recognized jazz band Hiroshima and ukulele player Jake Shimabukuro.

Working with the NAPCA board of directors and event committee on the dinners and concerts, FPN helped secure sponsors for the event and handled all other aspects of the event, including budget assessment, venue negotiations and management, invitation design and production, registration management, on-site coordination and event follow-up.

These successful events have allowed NAPCA to continue their important mission of addressing significant issues impacting the Asian Pacific American aging community.
