ANOKHI MEDIA Launches Its ‘EMPOWER ME’ Campaign To Mark Its 15th Year Anniversary
Lifestyle Sep 08, 2018
The ANOKHI Brand, North America’s leading South Asian entertainment and lifestyle media and events company, is thrilled to announce the launch of its 15th anniversary namesake brand campaign to celebrate a milestone year. And we would love for you to join us in this celebration!
After 15 years of providing content and support to the expat South Asian community by means of a glossy magazine, online blog community, multiple video channels and red carpet events, ANOKHI MEDIA is ready to celebrate this milestone year by combining its brand portfolio into one educational, inspiring and entertaining campaign, entitled ‘ANOKHI EMPOWER ME’
“We decided to mark this year by honouring the community that we have built, serve, and advocate for, by telling the story of our diaspora that has risen from obscurity to centre-stage during ANOKHI’s tenure” says Founder, President, and CEO, Raj Girn. “For the first time in our history, we will be bringing together our entire portfolio of brands with the launch of The ‘ANOKHI EMPOWER ME’ Campaign, so as to present a 15-year retrospective on some of the key South Asian personalities in Business, Technology, Politics, Crusader(ship), Media, Entertainment, Glamour, and Sports, who have built a trajectory for themselves and through so doing, have managed to empower their community, society, and the world.”

CHARITY PARTNER:
ANOKHI MEDIA is thrilled to have partnered up with the not-for-profit organization Free-Them to help fight Human Trafficking. Join us at their 6th Free-Them Walk on September 22nd and donate HERE (every penny helps!). Proceeds will go towards a new supported housing facility for trafficked victims between the ages of 16-24, which will be opened by Covenant House Toronto this Fall. This partnership adds to The ‘ANOKHI EMPOWER ME’ Campaign through a call to action to our community.
Here are a few facts you may not have known, we certainly didn’t:
– Human Trafficking is a 37 billion-dollar per year human trafficking industry, which enslaves 30 million victims worldwide (mostly children and women).
– The average age of entry into forced prostitution in Canada is only 13 years old and an alarming 87% of those trafficked in Canada are Canadians (and not immigrants or illegal aliens as most people think).
VENUE & HOTEL PARTNER:
ANOKHI MEDIA is pleased to partner with Toronto’s premier conference hotel, the Sheraton Centre Hotel, which is situated at the heart of the intersection between the financial and entertainment districts in downtown Toronto. The Summit and Ball will take place in the elegant Dominion Ballroom, and hotel guests will be able to take advantage of ANOKHI’s group discount rate for the weekend.
TICKETS will be available for purchase from Monday, September 17th, 2018.
