美國華府台灣年輕世代領袖培訓營
U.S. Workshop for Emerging Taiwanese Leaders
增廣國際觀,從華府看天下認識美國
各位橙縣的會員Dear FAPA Orange County Chapter Members:
為了協助台灣民主深化，以及提昇台灣國際地位，我們亟需具有國際觀的台灣年輕領袖。
FAPA與其他台美社團特地在2010年二月假華府做為期一週的國際人才培訓營。
希望經過培訓，學員能對美國的民主制度、政府立法、行政部門的運作、組織及架構，與台美的關係有更深入的了解，並與台美社團建立健全的溝通管道。
感謝張超英夫人慷慨捐款，大力贊助此工作營，但仍有一些極優秀的學員因旅費和吃住費用尚無著落，無法成行，極為可惜。Orange County理事會認為這是一個極有遠見，也具意義的活動，因此決定向會員們募款，幫忙贊助此一極有意義的活動。
希望大家都能略盡棉薄,捐款數目多寡不据，十元、二十元不嫌少，五百、一千不嫌多，各盡所能。
所有捐款，皆可抵稅，總部會出具抵稅証明。
若蒙捐款，請將支票註明: Workshop於一月底前寄至:

十分感謝大家為台灣盡一分心力 ~
並祝大家聖誕快樂，新年如意。

FAPA總部會長楊英育的信:
Dear Members of the FAPA Board:
I am writing to urge our 54 chapters to please consider contributing to the FAPA Workshop Assistantship Fund. Many of our applicants will need financial help to enable them to come to Washington, D.C. for the February 14-20, 2010 FAPA Workshop for Emerging Taiwanese Leaders. The need is especially acute for student applicants. We have very promising candidates that we hope to not turn away because of monetary limitations.
It is our estimate that each Workshop participant will spend $2,750 for the Workshop- $1,700 for round-trip airfare and $1,050 for States-side expenses. Money required to run the Workshop has already been donated by the family of Mr. Chao-Ying Chang.
I am therefore calling on our chapters with sufficient reserves in their treasuries to please donate to the Assistantship Fund. Several chapters have already responded generously. However, we need more of you to come forth. Please make your check payable to “FAPA” and write “Workshop” on the memo line. Send the check to FAPA Orange County Chapter, P.O. box 4439, Irvine, CA 92616-4439 or call the chapter to pledge your support.
Once again, I am attaching the Workshop booklet for your reference. Thank you. Happy Holidays.
Bob I. Yang, President
FAPA
