On October 23, 2025, members of AABANY’s Brooklyn Pro Bono Clinic joined the Chinese-American Planning Council (CPC) Brooklyn Branch for its annual Harvest Moon Benefit, held at New Phoenix Seafood Restaurant (912 65th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11219). The event brought together community leaders, partners, and supporters for an evening celebrating culture, service, and collaboration.
AABANY’s Brooklyn Pro Bono Clinic volunteers — Victoria Cheng, Judy Lee, Albert Tong, Jameson Xu, Nandar Win Kerr, May Wong, and Kwok Kei Ng — represented AABANY at the banquet. The group was warmly welcomed by CPC staff and community members in attendance.
The Harvest Moon Benefit highlighted CPC’s decades-long work serving Brooklyn’s immigrant and working-class communities through programs in education, family services, workforce development, and senior care. AABANY was proud to celebrate this partnership: CPC Brooklyn generously provides the space that makes the Brooklyn Pro Bono Legal Clinic possible. At the Pro Bono Clinic, which occurs every other month, volunteer attorneys and students assist community members navigating complex legal issues involving housing, employment, family, and consumer matters.
This lively and heartfelt evening reflected the collaboration between AABANY and CPC Brooklyn — both focused on promoting access to justice, empowering immigrant families, and building stronger neighborhoods.
AABANY extends its deepest thanks to CPC Brooklyn for the invitation and for their ongoing support of our clinic and the communities we serve.
