Annual Christmas Charity reception

On December 1, AmCham hosted its Annual Christmas Charity reception at the new event area on the 27th floor of the Radisson Blu Hotel Latvija.

Christmas greetings were presented by Sharon Hudson-Dean, Charge D'Affaires of the U.S. Embassy. The event was hosted by AmCham President Arnis Kakulis.
It was a very special event and got us into the real Christmas spirit thanks to Christmas songs and music performed by children's ensamble Kukaiņi and percussionist duet: Ēriks Miezis (vibes) & Miķelis Dzenuška (marimba).
During the evening AmCham held a charity raffle raising EUR 1200 in benefit of AmCham principal charities that help promote a healthy development of children and a family based care for children without their biological parents. Through two AmCham events this year we have raised EUR 1800 for Latvian Foster Family AssociationRonald McDonald House Charities Latvija (Care Mobile) and SOS Children's Villages in Latvia.
