NetIP Announces March Leaders of the Month
Kamana Sharma, NetSAP DC
Kamana Sharma has done outstanding work for the Greater DC area
through the Community Service Pillar. Philanthropic events
produced by NetSAP DC have increased in frequency, attendance has
tripled, and more underprivileged individuals and groups are
benefiting from NetSAP DC’s community work. Kamana approached the
NetSAP DC board in January wanting to create a monthly community
service event based on President Obama’s call to action on
www.serviceusa.org. Kamana believed that NetSAP DC members should
participate in President Obama’s call to action as a community of
South Asian American professionals and has achieved this goal through
each month’s Second Saturday of Service. Each month’s service event
assists a local organization, so NetSAP DC members are not only
promoting the importance of service in the South Asian community but are also
positively impacting the local Washington DC community.

Farida Hasanali, NetIP Houston
Farida Hasanali has been the beacon of enthusiasm and innovation on the Houston
board. The comfort and warmth that people see in her has helped NetIP
Houston keep its member base loyal. Her exemplary leadership
exhibited in organizing NetIP Houston’s International Women’s Day
event demonstrates her commitment and passion for the chapter. Farida
decided to host the event at her home and was responsible for all the
logistics such as invitations and program details. The home setting
and the women-only criteria provided the perfect environment for the
event. This event was a prime example of how Farida’s outgoing and friendly
personality has made everyone with whom she interacts an instant friend and
supporter of NetIP.
