Greetings
OUR MISSION
from the chairman and president
The Chaldean-American
Chamber of Commerce is
a partnership of Chaldean
businesses and professionals working together
to strengthen members’
business, increase job
opportunities, encourage
expansion and promote
Chaldean business and culture. The Chamber seeks
to service and represent
Aramaic-speaking people,
including Assyrians, Chaldeans and Syriacs.
The Chaldean Community
Foundation, the notfor-profit arm of the
Chaldean American
Chamber of Commerce,
is dedicated to advancing
the needs of the
Chaldean American
community and the
communities in which
they live and work
through education,
charitable giving and
advocacy.

It’s been a great first half for the Chaldean Chamber as 2016 has yielded a
plethora of successful events, initiatives and new opportunities. Given the
perpetual support and generosity from
members such as you, the Chamber
continues to be the premier organization for planning and economic
development in the Chaldean community. We take tremendous pride in
serving you as we realize our success
is predicated upon the high caliber of
members that we represent.
As we enter into the next quarter
SAAD ABBO
MARTIN MANNA
of this year, we have much to be proud
of. The year is only half way gone and
we’ve already hosted multiple successful networking events, luncheons, town hall meetings and career fairs. In particular,
this year’s Thirteenth Annual Awards dinner stood second to none as we honored one
of Time Magazine’s most influential people in the Country, Dr. Mona Hanna-Attisha
and the General Motors dealers of the year, Bas and Tanya Robin. The annual gala
was a sold-out success and attracted more than 900 corporate, civic and community
leaders.
In addition to the Chamber’s success, we are elated to announce that since opening its doors more than seven months ago, the new Chaldean Community Foundation center has helped meet the needs of thousands and is on track to service more
than 20,000 individuals by the end of this year. Thanks to the support of our sponsors, volunteers, members and donors, those in need have been given a new creed of
hope and a chance at a “New Life in a New Land.” While we are proud of our recent accomplishments, we realize that there is still
room for improvement and more work to be done. For the remainder of the year, we
will be working to provide more networking opportunities and educational forums to
aid your business. We look forward to launching new initiatives that bring increased
benefit and value to your membership.
In closing, we thank you for your partnership and for granting us the privilege to
serve. We are grateful for the contributions that you have provided both the Chamber and Foundation. We stand confident in knowing that with your support we will
continue to grow stronger as one of the largest ethnic chambers in the country.
Yours in Service,
Saad Abbo

13th Annual Awards Dinner:
A Night to Remember!
MAY 2, 2015 – OCTOBER 30, 2015
A
sell-out crowd of over 900 civic, corporate and community members set
the stage for one of the premier galas in Southeast Michigan. For the 13th
year in a row, members and friends gathered for a special evening celebrating the Chamber’s 13th Annual Gala. Thanks to our good friend and emcee for the
night Charlie Langton, guests were both entertained and engaged throughout the
evening’s special program.
Building upon the night’s excitement were the heart felt welcomes and
speeches of several dignitaries, including His Excellency Bishop Ibrahim Ibrahim,
U.S Senators Debbie Stabenow and Gary Peters and Congressman Dave Trott.
In addition, the dinner was graced with the presence and participation of elite
dignitaries such as Iraq’s Ambassador to the U.S., Lukman Faily; Iraq’s Consul
General, Al Manhal Alsafi; Mother Superior of the Chaldean Daughters of Mary
Immaculate Conception, Sister Philip Kirma; Wayne County Executive Warren
Evans, State Representative Klint Kesto and many others.
It’s not every evening you have the privilege to honor the General Motors Dealers of the Year and one of Time magazine’s most influential people in the country.
Power couple Bas and Tanya Robin captivated the audience as they outlined their
humble journey to success while Dr. Mona inspired us all with her motivating and
courageous story. The caliber of our honorees were second to none as all three
serve as living testaments to the true essence of the Chaldean community.
A special thank you to all of our dinner supporters led by Blue Cross Blue Shield,
Comerica Bank, Country Fresh, DTE Energy, Ford Motor Company and U.S. Ice
Corporation of Michigan.
