Press play 🎥

Thank you for coming to hang with us in Washington, DC
but more than that, thank you for showing up with your whole Jai!

Kop Jai Lai Lai to our community for standing beside . What we gathered in that room was more than a fundraiser. It was memory. It was hope. It was connection through food.

Thank you to our generous hosts , and to the beautiful hands behind the food — and — for nourishing us in every sense of the word.

Together, we raised funds to support continued work in rebuilding from a legacy of war.

It means one less field that a child is afraid to run through.
One less farmer wondering if the soil beneath their feet is safe.
One more classroom where mine risk education can protect a future.

The bombs dropped on Laos, Vietnam, and Cambodia did not disappear when the war ended. They stayed — buried in the earth, passed down in silence. And yet here we are, generations later, choosing to unearth something else: healing.

To our organizers and volunteers, you carried this with care. To everyone who donated, poured a drink, bought a plate, shared a post, or simply came, you are part of this community.

Stay tuned for more!

“Peace… it never left us.”

To witness the monks walk for peace, and to cook alongside a community united in kindness and mindfulness, was a moment that will stay with us forever. Every step, every shared meal, every smile; a reminder that peace lives in action and in heart.

Deep gratitude to .usa, the monks, organizers, volunteers, first responders, and our food family for nourishing body, heart, and spirit.

🙏 — and to all the local donors, neighbors, and restaurants in DC who came out to support.

Food gathers us.
Peace walks with us. 🕊️🤍

“Peace… is in us. It never left.”

Guided by the words of Venerable Bhikkhu Pannakara .usa , we remembered:
peace lives in unity, in community, in shared food.

Deep gratitude to every volunteer, first responder, elder, and neighbor who showed up in DC and to our beautiful family who traveled from Florida, Texas, Georgia, California, Kansas, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, and beyond.

With love to and the teams at and countless DMV and Lao food community members.

Food gathers us.
Food heals us.
Peace begins with us.
