Association of American Physicians of Indian Origin Hampton Roads
First AAPI-HR gala in 2010 was a success.
AAPI-HR has been in existence as an informal body for over 20 years. In 2005 we began the process of formalizing the organization. In 2009 we achieved a tax exempt status giving AAPI-HR a 501(c)3 status. Immediately, members worked together to raise funds as a formal organization with the goal to give back to the community they had adopted. Currently AAPI-HR has more than 150 members.
AAPI-HR is led by an Executive Committee. To see the committee, click here.
The first fundraiser was a very successful formal gala "For the Love of Giving" in February 2010 which has become an annual event. All proceeds benefit local free clinics as well as a scholarship for a medical student at Eastern Virginia Medical School in Norfolk, Va.
