WASHINGTON D.C - Corinna Shen, co-owner of Seven Seas Restaurant received an appreciation award on Janury 19 in recognition of her dedicated volunteer efforts as national advisor for the International Leadership Foundation (ILF) at their annual New Year and Advisory Board Members' Inauguration dinner.

Established in 1999, the International Leadership Foundation is a non-profit, non-partisan organization that promotes civic awareness, involvement and effectiveness of Asian Pacific Americans by providing future Asian American leaders with a practical understanding of how the government works through an internship program that is run every summer.

"It is so important for the Asian community to voice their concerns and be heard by the right people. This is why I am strongly supportive the ILF's goals and I am very glad to be part of the ILF," said Shen.

Shen was invited by ILF's founding president Chiling Tong to join the organization's advisory board in 1992. For more information in the ILF, visit their website at http://www.ileader.org
