Ginger, will be held on Monday, March 23rd at the beautiful Art of the Americas
Wing at the Museum of Fine Arts, with a goal of raising over $300,000 for Joslin
Diabetes Center’s Asian American Diabetes Initiative (AADI), which works to
enhance the quality of life and health outcomes for the rising number of Asian
Americans living with diabetes, as well as working with Joslin as they work to
find a cure.
Each year, the event draws hundreds of supporters and foodies who gather to
enjoy a lively evening, which includes the opportunity to meet and taste the
cuisine of Boston’s most celebrated chefs, including Joanne Chang, Jasper
White and Jacky Roberts amidst the beauty of the MFA.

mission and her active role within the Asian American community. Dr. Sun is

Vascular Biology at Joslin Diabetes Center, and an Assistant Professor of
Ophthalmology at Harvard Medical School.
The event will be co-chaired by C. Richard and Deborah Carlson as well as
