 MARCH 14, 2024, 7 PM PDT,   ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING - 3D PRINTING, HYBRID IN-PERSON AND VIDEO TALK BY ZSOFIA KESZEI, PURDUE UNIVERSITY;
 Honorary Consulate of Hungary, 2000 Alameda de las Pulgas, San Mateo, CA ,We invite you to an enlightening evening dedicated to unraveling the mysteries and marvels of additive manufacturing, with its profound impact on our daily lives.
Additive manufacturing is a developing way of fabrication that builds parts up layer by layer instead of carving them out or molding them into shape like other manufacturing processes. One aspect of it, 3D printing, is very accessible to the average person.
 3D printing has come a long way since its inception. What began as a way to add layers of plastics to each other to create different shapes on demand has evolved into a sophisticated technology that can create airplane parts, biological organs and full rocket engines.
 
What does the future hold for additive manufacturing? Can we replace some manufacturing lines with it? We are in the beginning stages of yet another revolution.
 
 
In this talk, Zsofia will explain in simple terms the basics of additive manufacturing, the current state-of-the-art technologies, and future possibilities. 
 She will tell us all about the history, the types, and the uses of this innovative branch of technology, and reveal how it can change our life. She will explain the steps of the modeling and printing process, and will show us how to start 3D printing at home. Zsofia Keszei is a Mechanical Engineering senior at Purdue University.

Peek into the Future: What lies ahead for 3D printing? We'll explore the fascinating future possibilities and the impact they could have on industries, and everyday life.
Join us on to understand the possibilities in additive manufacturing, and to understand what lies ahead for this game-changing technology.
 Brought to you by Zsofia Keszei, and the Hungarian American Society for Science, Technology and Innovation in Silicon Valley, together with Eva Voisin, Honorary Consul.
 Hybrid in-person and video talk at 2000 Alameda de las Pulgas, San Mateo, CA 94403, on Thursday March 14, 2024, at 7 pm PDT.

SPECIAL FUNDRAISING REQUEST TO THE HUNGARIAN AMERICAN COMMUNITY , WE CAN DO THIS TOGETHER!
 The Holy Redeemer Lutheran Church in Newark, the proposed new home
of the Hungarian Reformed Church of San Francisco and Vicinity
and the Hungarian Cultural Center
 
 
Dear Friends and Fellow Hungarians,

Recently, the Hungarian Reformed Church of San Francisco and Vicinity sold their church building in Redwood City with the goal of obtaining a new, more suitable location.
 Additionally, the Bay Area Hungarian community has been trying to re-establish a Hungarian-owned Cultural Center for the last 40 years, in order to preserve our culture and traditions into the future.
 Together, we can turn both dreams into reality! The Holy Redeemer Lutheran Church in Newark is now up for sale. The facility has a sanctuary, separate social hall, full kitchen, picnic area, fenced-in areas for children and lots of parking. With your generous support we can acquire this property which will be ideal as a new home for our church and to establish a Hungarian Cultural Center. This would be the only Hungarian-owned establishment in the San Francisco Bay Area.
We have been conducting Sunday services and hosting community events at this site for the last 8 months, such as the 1956 Revolution Memorial Dinner, “Stephen, the King” Day, Father’s Day picnic and St. Nicholas Sausage Dinner. Everyone who attended the various events was very excited about the potential acquisition of this desirable site.
We need your help to make a competitive offer by December 31, 2023!  
We are $500,000 short and it’s going to take a village to raise this amount. Please consider making a tax-deductible donation today so we can secure a new home for our church and the Hungarian Cultural Center for our entire Hungarian community to own and enjoy for generations to come!
 These donations will be restricted for this purpose.
Please spread the word and encourage your family and friends to also make a donation.
PayPal - click  https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=Q2E87RA557PKG
zelle - email: zoltangode@reformatustemplom.com
You can also donate by checks, payable to Hungarian Reformed Church, PO Box 2727, Redwood City, CA 94064-2727
We wish all of you a Merry Christmas and hope your holiday season is full of peace, joy and happiness!
With gratitude,   Gabor Magyari-Kope, Pastor, and Zoltan Gode, Chief Elder and Treasurer, Hungarian Reformed Church of San Francisco and Vicinity 

or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver. “ - 2 Corinthians 9:7 “Each of you should give what you have decided in your heart to give, not reluctantly
 Update (12/26/2023):
With heartfelt gratitude, we are happy to report that there are already pledges and donations totaling over $300,000 towards our goal to purchase the Lutheran Church property in Newark. We are almost there, let’s keep up the momentum! The money we are raising will make the difference as to whether we could be competitive with our bid.
 We took stewardship of the money from the disbanded Hungarian House and managed it responsibly, generating significant growth. We have always kept this money separate from our General Funds. Now all of it will go towards the purchase of this property.The donations are restricted solely for the purchase of this property. Should this purchase fail, we will continue our search for a new site. In that case, we will hold the funds; the monies donated will be kept separate and not used for anything else. However, we will refund any donations, upon request.
