Dear KSW friends,

Kearny Street Workshop will stop using yahoogroups at the end of 2009. We have started our own online community on Ning. Here, you can find the same content we have been sharing through yahoogroups: event invites, job opportunities, artist calls and more. 

Plus, you are able to interact with us and with each other by joining us at kearnystreet.ning.com. It costs nothing to join and you can create your own profile, upload your artwork, comment, talk about events. Take a look!

You can find "Sign Up" at the top right corner of the screen to join our community. Please make the move from yahoogroups to kearnystreet.ning.com so we can connect with you and help our community grow. 

Hope to see you soon!

KSW 

You're Invited! San Francisco Hep B Free The San Francisco Hep B Free campaign is a collaboration of over thirty diverse public and private interests working together to eliminate the transmission of hepatitis B, with a special emphasis on the Asian and Pacific Islander population who bear a disproportionate rate of chronic hepatitis B infection. DONATE TO SF HEP B FREE ONLINE TODAY: sfhepbfree.org/donate Hepatitis B is a disease caused by infection with the hepatitis B virus (HBV). Infection with HBV can lead to cirrhosis of the liver, liver failure, and liver cancer. 80% of liver cancer worldwide is caused by HBV infection. Asian Americans tend to be infected at a much higher rate, with 1 in 10 Asians chronically infected with hepatitis B, compared to 1 in 1000 in the general population. Without treatment or monitoring, 1 in 4 of these individuals will die from liver cancer or liver failure. In California alone, liver cancer is the #1 leading cause of cancer deaths among Laotian American men, the 2nd leading cause of cancer deaths among Cambodian and Vietnamese men, the 4th leading cause of cancer deaths among Chinese and Korean men, and the 5th leading cause of deaths among Filipino men. The SF Hep B Free Steering Committee is made up of the San Francisco Department of Public Health, Asian Liver Center at Stanford University, and AsianWeek Foundation. Assemblywoman Fiona Ma serves as Honorary Chairperson. www.sfhepbfree.org Golden State Warriors' Asian Heritage Night: Benefiting San Francisco Hep B Free   Celebrate Asian Heritage with the Warriors as they take on Yi Jianlian and the New Jersey Nets on Friday, January 22, 2010.
