RCC members reflected at the incredible progress the Center has made in the span of a year and the support it has garnered from everyone. The board members and the many volunteers were recognized for their efforts. Many of the staff from the Zakat Foundation, which funds RCC, were present.
A documentary team from Direct TV was there to capture scenes from the celebration for a documentary on the Rohingya community currently in production. Delicious Rohingya food was served to all present and a festive time was had by all.
