On Sunday May 1, 2011 The IDC hosted its Annual Program "Value of Women in Our Community Award Ceremony". The topic this year was "Contributions of Women to Education"

Keynote Speaker, Asm Patrick J. Diegnan, shared his thoughts about the Contributions of Women to Education.

Soon after, a group of young kids performed their Turkish folk dances to the audience. Which, everyone ejoyed very much.

The Honorees of the ceremony Dr. Patricia C. Donohue ( President, Mercer County Community College) and Cigdem Gulen (Turkish Cultural Center Weekend School Coordinator) were presented their awards.

Mayor of Edison Antonia "Toni" Ricigliano and Middlesex County Sherrif Mildred Scott shared their reflections at the end of the program. Rev. Dr. Annari Griesel helped IDC by hosting the program at the JFK Medical Center; we thank her very much.
