Dear AAAEA Community,

Thank you for making the AAAEA-IL Social Event on March 24 a great success!

Held at Chateau Del Mar in Hickory Hills, the event offered an opportunity for AAAEA-IL members to socialize, network, as well as play games, trivia, and win prizes during a raffle. Attendees enjoyed a wonderful Middle Eastern dinner, traditional dabke dancing, and a DJ. Our two emcees, Jameeleh Shelo and Ahmed AbdelAzizi, carried the evening with grace and brilliance.

As part of the program, we announced the launch of our Engineering Champion initiative which connects established engineers in the U.S. with newly arrived engineers from the Middle East with the goal of advising the newcomers on the U.S. engineering field so that they can successfully enter the job market. We encourage you to sign up to be an Engineering Champion by helping our newly arrived immigrants.

The Social Event also included a segment in which tens of prizes and gifts were awarded, with the biggest raffle prize of a 55” 4K TV going to AAAEA National President, Mr. Jamal Grainawi!
