THE 2022 ADA GALA
Each immigrant wave that has come to our community has made contributions we all benefit from. Immigrants of past generations have paved the way for immigrants of today. Although their paths to reach our country may differ, they share a common goal - The American Dream.
Join us on September 16, 2022, at 5:30 at the Amber Room Colonnade as we as celebrate that common goal by honoring remarkable individuals in our community and share an exciting announcement about TNADF's plans to help immigrants in our community achieve the ultimate American Dream.
There will be 3 Community Award categories with honorees selected by TNADF:
•COMMUNITY HERO AWARD –to an institution that has had an impact on the lives of immigrants in our community
• RISING STAR AWARD– to an immigrant or a child of immigrants making their mark in the community (20-40 years of age).
• LIFETIME ACHIEVEMENT AWARDS – to an immigrant or a child of immigrants that has made a lasting impact on the community (50 years of age or older).
AMERICAN DREAM AWARD SCHOLARSHIP
One American Dream Award Scholarship of $3,000 will be awarded to an individual 16 years or older who is an immigrant or a child of immigrants living in the Fairfield County area who faced many challenges along their journey to achieve their American Dream.
THE NEW AMERICAN DREAM FOUNDATION
The New American Dream Foundation, Inc. (TNADF) is a 501(c)(3) organization created to promote our nation's rich immigrant history, highlighting the cultural, social, and economic contributions of all immigrants, and the core American values of equal opportunity, progress, and freedom in the areas of education, health, and civic engagement.
ABOUT US
Tribuna Newspaper is a multilingual publication in English, Portuguese and Spanish, with the mission to build bridges and join cultures, by providing its readers with content that connects them with the communities where they live.
In the process of fulfilling that mission, Tribuna has come across compelling stories of immigrants, like its founder and publisher, Celia Bacelar Palmares, who migrated to the U.S from Brazil over twenty years ago and faced many challenges along her journey to achieve her American Dream.
On April 19, 2014, in celebration of its 15th Anniversary, Tribuna created the American Dream Awards Gala, an annual awards ceremony designed to recognize members
of the community who share in Tribuna’s founder’s story.
In 2016, the event's growth over the years sparked the creation of The New American Dream Foundation, Inc. a 501(c)(3).
To date, over $150,000 have been given in scholarships, awards and donations to the community through the event.
"The gala became an opportunity for all of us to
come together and go beyond highlighting the
cultural contributions of the immigrant community, and sincerely celebrate their determination in the pursuit of their American Dream above all else. The foundation is vehicle to create meaningful change for generations
of immigrants to come."
- Celia Bacelar Palmares
