A WORD FROM THE PRESIDENT Dear EAS member,
It is my pleasure to introduce you to the first EAS Newsletter of 2009. As times change and new technologies emerge every day, it was imperative that the EAS communication with its members evolve and adopt better and more efficient ways to bring together the Egyptian American community.
With the EAS board's blessing, we have decided to part with our Yahoo Group mailing list and replace it with this bi-monthly newsletter which offers a variety of options such as community news, surveys and polls, advertisements, safe unsubscribe, and much more.
YOUR OPINION MATTERS! So please send us your feedback as well as any suggestions on how to improve our communication with you, whether through the EAS newsletter or through our website www.eascafe.org.
We appreciate your commitment to the Egyptian American Society and we thank you for your support and wish all the wonderful mothers around the world a HAPPY MOTHERS DAY!
Sincerely,
Magda Danish |
