>>Announcer This is a production of Temple University.
>>Host Good afternoon vendors and guests! Please just us once again on our lower level.
>>Tiffenia This is our third annual multicultural bazaar that's organized by the Temple University
Women of Color group. We're a group of women of all different ethnicities and races from
around the campus who have joined together to do professional development, kind of workshops
and activities. In about 2010, somebody said we should give out a couple of book awards
if we can, and so the idea of the multicultural bazaar came up.
>>Gradette This bazaar really does wonderful things for the future Women of Color, because
it's going to provide scholarships, scholarships for individuals that are selected, and as
little or as much money as I can spend, I'm here to support that.
>>Tiffenia We sell tables to vendors and 100% of the proceeds from the tables goes to the
book scholarships. >>Wafai I am here now at this event so I can
support them, because I know how because I know how beneficial the scholarship was for
me and I want to do that as well for more recipients in the spring semester or in the
next fall. >>Tiffenia Getting 500 dollars that may seem
like a lot to people, but several of the young ladies have said if we didn't get this 500
dollars, we really would not have been able to come because we wouldn't have been able
to afford books. That is what we do this for and so we want to get this bigger and grow
it, and perhaps even give out more money.
