The Asian Pacific Islander Desi American (APIDA) Gala & Student Leader Awards Ceremony showcases and celebrates the phenomenal APIDA organizations and student leaders on campus!

This event is a highlight of Cornell's APIDA Heritage Month celebration - a series of programs and events that educate all members of the Cornell University community about the histories, cultural diversity, contributions, and often underreported challenges of the APIDA Community. The theme of this year's gala is Building Bridges Across and Beyond the APIDA community.

This year we are recognizing three student organizations and two student leaders! Individual awardees will receive a $75 Visa gift card for Student Advocate of the Year and Student Employee of the Year.

Organization award recipients will receive $150 for Best Event of the Year and New & Upcoming Organization, and $200 for Outstanding Contribution to the APIDA Community by a Student Organization.

Submit your nominations here https://forms.gle/EFa2tv3WzzuWU9u9A by April 8th!
