Memory Project<\/a>, launched in 2015 by Andrea and R\u00e9ka Pigniczky, Coalition member and award-winning documentary filmmaker. The Memory Project: Hungarian American Visual History Archive has more than 100 video interviews with Hungarian-Americans who immigrated to the United States in WWII (as Displaced Persons) or in 1956. After showing a brief trailer of the project she discussed next steps to build an internship program to train young people across the US to conduct these interviews within their own communities. She also mentioned they were looking into the possibility of taking the entire project global.<\/p>\nAnna Smith Lacey, Executive Director of the Hungary Initiatives Foundation, concluded the day\u2019s presentations. \u00a0She explained the most important criteria HIF considers when deciding on project grants, and gave practical advice for organizations on how to apply.<\/p>\n
In the evening, participants attended dinner and a Hungarian wine-tasting at Marymount University\u2019s Reinsch Library Board Room and Reception area. Ambassador R\u00e9ka Szemerk\u00e9nyi, and HIF Board Member Dr. Tam\u00e1s Fellegi, who were on campus for the day\u2019s commencement ceremonies, dropped by the dinner to mingle with participants.<\/p>\n
On Sunday morning, Elizabeth (Dyar) Stiff, Co-Founder of Native Collaboration, held a social media outreach and strategy workshop for participants. She provided a brief overview of various forms of social media platforms and led an exercise on how to develop a strategic communication plan.<\/p>\n
Next, Anna Voloshin, Senior Director of Development at The McCain Institute for International Leadership, held a professional development session on fundraising and grant writing. She led an interactive discussion on the basic tenets of successful fundraising events and strategies, while asking for participants to share their own personal examples.<\/p>\n
After lunch, Csilla Grauzer, President, Minnesota Hungarians and VP of the Coalition joined Melissa Katko Pepkin, AHF, to share stories about non-traditional funding vehicles that had been successful in their own communities. They provided practical advice on where to access lists of potential grants and how to reach outside of the Hungarian community for support.<\/p>\n
Grauzer, who has attended several HATOG Conferences in the past, addressed the focus on youth outreach at this year\u2019s event. \u201cBringing younger and older Hungarian community members together to talk, share ideas, skills and knowledge allows both groups to understand more about each other and the needs of the community. The HATOG atmosphere encourages everyone involved to learn new skills, think creatively and make new relationships. Joining forces as equal partners gives young people real ownership and power in planning and decision-making and encourages them into leadership roles.\u201d<\/p>\n
Andrea Lauer Rice closed the conference by highlighting ways to keep the lines of communication open for this group and how to continue working together to solve community challenges. She also mentioned that the Coalition would likely be looking to organize the next HATOG XI somewhere on the West Coast.<\/p>\n
Among the participants, enthusiasm was high. Piros Pazaurek, HungarianHub in Daytona Beach attended her first HATOG, said \u201cIt was an honor to participate and experience a long weekend in the incredible atmosphere of Washington D.C. During the HATOG conference with Hungarians from all across the United States, we had the chance to share best practices and learned a lot about fundraising events and what other communities are doing. Overall this event was very beneficial to myself and to the HungarianHub as well.\u201d<\/p>\n
The organizers will post a report on HATOG X with the presentations in the near future.<\/p>\n

This year\u2019s conference was organized by the American Hungarian Heritage House (AHHH), the Hungarian American Coalition (Coalition), and The Hungary Initiatives Foundation. More than 60 representatives from 16 states and Hungary, attended the conference. With a real focus on attracting young up-and-coming leaders, approximately 70% of the participants were attending their first HATOG conference. \u201cThe HATOG Conference Series has really taken on a special role in the community. It is an opportunity to strengthen regional networks of organizations, provide opportunities for professional development but also to bring everyone together to address community-wide challenges, which oftentimes mimic what we see as challenges in our own organizations,\u201d explained Andrea Lauer Rice, President of the Coalition and longtime HATOG organizer, \u201cIn our day-to-day lives, we are always focused on the next event or that week\u2019s challenge, but HATOG allows us to step away from all that, albeit briefly, to really look at the big picture with fellow leaders from across the US. At HATOG X, we focused on youth outreach, which was extremely beneficial in terms of bridging the generations and working together to understand each other\u2019s challenges. I fully expect this approach to become part of all future HATOGs!\u201d Stefan and Erika Fedor, President of AHHH, and Andrea Lauer Rice, did the lion\u2019s share of the work in preparing and managing this conference. Coalition interns, who are in DC as part of the Coalition Internship Program, also helped at every stage. HATOG\u2019s initial networking event was to participate in the Hungarian Charity Ball held on Friday, May 19 at Sheraton Premiere in Tysons Corner, VA. The proceeds of this event, organized by AHHH and the Hungarian Scouts of Washington, will support the Eszeny Bocskai Istvan Middle School, a Hungarian school in Ukraine and will help to establish Hungarian scholarship fund for Hungarian American students. The two-day HATOG conference was held at Marymount University in Arlington, VA. \u00a0The event began Saturday, with short presentations on each participating organization\u2019s activities. Coalition President Emeritus Max Teleki and Coalition Chairman of the Board Agnes Virga presented an overview of the mission and programs of the Coalition. \u00a0Stefan Fedor\u2019s introduction of AHHH followed during which he expressed his goal of cooperating with other organizations and providing opportunities to hold events at Marymount. L\u00e1szl\u00f3 H\u00e1mos, President of the Diaspora Council\u2019s U.S. Section then reported on the council\u2019s work in Budapest and at Regional Diaspora Meetings organized by the Embassy of Hungary. The Diaspora Council focuses on eight topic areas: nurturing Hungarian cultural heritage; Hungarian language teaching; Reconnect Hungary Birthright Program; K\u0151r\u00f6si Csoma Sandor Program; promoting Hungarian business and trade; world-map of Hungarians; advocacy of important issues; Memory Project Hungarian America Visual History Archive. During Mr. Hamos\u2019 presentation, he invited several participants involved in the various initiatives\u00a0to update the conference.\u00a0The first was Kathleen Horan, a 3rd generation Hungarian American, who described her experience of the ReConnect Hungary (Birthright) Program.\u00a0 She emphasized its educational value and its ripple-effect in the greater Hungarian American community. Gabe Rozsa, Executive Director of the Kossuth Foundation, then followed with a presentation on the history and current situation of the Kossuth House in Washington, DC. Marymount University President, Dr. Matthew Shank and Vice President of University Advancement Joe Foster appeared briefly to welcome HATOG participants and said they were grateful for their partnership with the AHHH. After lunch, Endre Szentkiralyi made a presentation on the history of the Hungarian American community in the U.S., with a special focus on recently established Hungarian Scout Troops as indication of the survival of Hungarian communities in certain geographical areas. His remarks were followed by Andrea Lauer Rice\u2019s report on the present state of the Hungarian American community, and a summary of the results of the pre-conference survey of HATOG participants. She also described Dezso Farkas\u2019 sociological research project, entitled \u2018American-Hungarian or Hungarian-American? \u2013 The identity of the modern-day Hungarians in the U.S\u2019. Two professional development sessions followed for which participants were divided into two groups. The first group talked about Strategic Planning \u2013 Fact-finding Interview with Community Representatives\u2019 led by Barbara Sahli of Chroma Design and Communications. \u00a0The second half of participants were split into two \u201cyouth leader\u201d break out groups, who discussed the following questions: Where do you see the community in 20 years?; Out-of-the-box Ideas on Sharing Heritage; If you were Supreme Leader of the Hungarian American community, what would you do?; How have you successfully engaged the youth in the Hungarian American community? How would you like to improve? Advice? These group discussions were led by Faye Gillespie with each group leader presenting their findings to all conference participants. After the presentations of all break-out groups, Melissa Katk\u00f3 Pepin, Executive Director of the Hungarian American Foundation (New Brunswick, NJ) gave an update on the work of the Foundation and talked about her goal of maintaining founder August J. Molnar\u2019s legacy while also modernizing the foundation for future generations. Ildik\u00f3 Nagy then spoke about the challenges of maintaining the building of the Hungarian House in New York and expressed a need for a best practices workshop for Hungarian community centers in other cities. The program continued with Andrea Lauer Rice\u2019s report on the Memory Project, launched in 2015 by Andrea and R\u00e9ka Pigniczky, Coalition member and award-winning documentary filmmaker. The Memory Project: Hungarian American Visual History Archive has more than 100 video interviews with Hungarian-Americans who immigrated to the United States in WWII (as Displaced Persons) or in 1956. After showing a brief trailer of the project she discussed next steps to build an internship program to train young people across the US to conduct these interviews within their own communities. She also mentioned they were looking into the possibility of taking the entire project global. Anna Smith Lacey, Executive Director of the Hungary Initiatives Foundation, concluded the day\u2019s presentations. \u00a0She explained the most important criteria HIF considers when deciding on project grants, and gave practical advice for organizations on how to apply. In the evening, participants attended dinner and a Hungarian wine-tasting at Marymount University\u2019s Reinsch Library Board Room and Reception area. Ambassador R\u00e9ka Szemerk\u00e9nyi, and HIF Board Member Dr. Tam\u00e1s Fellegi, who were on campus for the day\u2019s commencement ceremonies, dropped by the dinner to mingle with participants. On Sunday morning, Elizabeth (Dyar) Stiff, Co-Founder of Native Collaboration, held a social media outreach and strategy workshop for participants. She provided a brief overview of various forms of social media platforms and led an exercise on how to develop a strategic communication plan. Next, Anna Voloshin, Senior Director of Development at The McCain Institute for International Leadership, held a professional development session on fundraising and grant writing. She led an interactive discussion on the basic tenets of successful fundraising events and strategies, while asking for participants to share their own personal examples. After lunch, Csilla Grauzer, President, Minnesota Hungarians and VP of the Coalition joined Melissa Katko Pepkin, AHF, to share stories about non-traditional funding vehicles that had been successful in their own communities. They provided practical advice on where to access lists of potential grants and how to reach outside of the Hungarian community for support.

This year\u2019s conference was organized by the American Hungarian Heritage House (AHHH), the Hungarian American Coalition (Coalition), and The Hungary Initiatives Foundation. More than 60 representatives from 16 states and Hungary, attended the conference. With a real focus on attracting young up-and-coming leaders, approximately 70% of the participants were attending their first HATOG conference. \u201cThe HATOG Conference Series has really taken on a special role in the community. It is an opportunity to strengthen regional networks of organizations, provide opportunities for professional development but also to bring everyone together to address community-wide challenges, which oftentimes mimic what we see as challenges in our own organizations,\u201d explained Andrea Lauer Rice, President of the Coalition and longtime HATOG organizer, \u201cIn our day-to-day lives, we are always focused on the next event or that week\u2019s challenge, but HATOG allows us to step away from all that, albeit briefly, to really look at the big picture with fellow leaders from across the US. At HATOG X, we focused on youth outreach, which was extremely beneficial in terms of bridging the generations and working together to understand each other\u2019s challenges. I fully expect this approach to become part of all future HATOGs!\u201d Stefan and Erika Fedor, President of AHHH, and Andrea Lauer Rice, did the lion\u2019s share of the work in preparing and managing this conference. Coalition interns, who are in DC as part of the Coalition Internship Program, also helped at every stage. HATOG\u2019s initial networking event was to participate in the Hungarian Charity Ball held on Friday, May 19 at Sheraton Premiere in Tysons Corner, VA. The proceeds of this event, organized by AHHH and the Hungarian Scouts of Washington, will support the Eszeny Bocskai Istvan Middle School, a Hungarian school in Ukraine and will help to establish Hungarian scholarship fund for Hungarian American students. The two-day HATOG conference was held at Marymount University in Arlington, VA. \u00a0The event began Saturday, with short presentations on each participating organization\u2019s activities. Coalition President Emeritus Max Teleki and Coalition Chairman of the Board Agnes Virga presented an overview of the mission and programs of the Coalition. \u00a0Stefan Fedor\u2019s introduction of AHHH followed during which he expressed his goal of cooperating with other organizations and providing opportunities to hold events at Marymount. L\u00e1szl\u00f3 H\u00e1mos, President of the Diaspora Council\u2019s U.S. Section then reported on the council\u2019s work in Budapest and at Regional Diaspora Meetings organized by the Embassy of Hungary. The Diaspora Council focuses on eight topic areas: nurturing Hungarian cultural heritage; Hungarian language teaching; Reconnect Hungary Birthright Program; K\u0151r\u00f6si Csoma Sandor Program; promoting Hungarian business and trade; world-map of Hungarians; advocacy of important issues; Memory Project Hungarian America Visual History Archive. During Mr. Hamos\u2019 presentation, he invited several participants involved in the various initiatives\u00a0to update the conference.\u00a0The first was Kathleen Horan, a 3rd generation Hungarian American, who described her experience of the ReConnect Hungary (Birthright) Program.\u00a0 She emphasized its educational value and its ripple-effect in the greater Hungarian American community. Gabe Rozsa, Executive Director of the Kossuth Foundation, then followed with a presentation on the history and current situation of the Kossuth House in Washington, DC. Marymount University President, Dr. Matthew Shank and Vice President of University Advancement Joe Foster appeared briefly to welcome HATOG participants and said they were grateful for their partnership with the AHHH. After lunch, Endre Szentkiralyi made a presentation on the history of the Hungarian American community in the U.S., with a special focus on recently established Hungarian Scout Troops as indication of the survival of Hungarian communities in certain geographical areas. His remarks were followed by Andrea Lauer Rice\u2019s report on the present state of the Hungarian American community, and a summary of the results of the pre-conference survey of HATOG participants. She also described Dezso Farkas\u2019 sociological research project, entitled \u2018American-Hungarian or Hungarian-American? \u2013 The identity of the modern-day Hungarians in the U.S\u2019. Two professional development sessions followed for which participants were divided into two groups. The first group talked about Strategic Planning \u2013 Fact-finding Interview with Community Representatives\u2019 led by Barbara Sahli of Chroma Design and Communications. \u00a0The second half of participants were split into two \u201cyouth leader\u201d break out groups, who discussed the following questions: Where do you see the community in 20 years?; Out-of-the-box Ideas on Sharing Heritage; If you were Supreme Leader of the Hungarian American community, what would you do?; How have you successfully engaged the youth in the Hungarian American community? How would you like to improve? Advice? These group discussions were led by Faye Gillespie with each group leader presenting their findings to all conference participants. After the presentations of all break-out groups, Melissa Katk\u00f3 Pepin, Executive Director of the Hungarian American Foundation (New Brunswick, NJ) gave an update on the work of the Foundation and talked about her goal of maintaining founder August J. Molnar\u2019s legacy while also modernizing the foundation for future generations. Ildik\u00f3 Nagy then spoke about the challenges of maintaining the building of the Hungarian House in New York and expressed a need for a best practices workshop for Hungarian community centers in other cities. The program continued with Andrea Lauer Rice\u2019s report on the Memory Project, launched in 2015 by Andrea and R\u00e9ka Pigniczky, Coalition member and award-winning documentary filmmaker. The Memory Project: Hungarian American Visual History Archive has more than 100 video interviews with Hungarian-Americans who immigrated to the United States in WWII (as Displaced Persons) or in 1956. After showing a brief trailer of the project she discussed next steps to build an internship program to train young people across the US to conduct these interviews within their own communities. She also mentioned they were looking into the possibility of taking the entire project global. Anna Smith Lacey, Executive Director of the Hungary Initiatives Foundation, concluded the day\u2019s presentations. \u00a0She explained the most important criteria HIF considers when deciding on project grants, and gave practical advice for organizations on how to apply. In the evening, participants attended dinner and a Hungarian wine-tasting at Marymount University\u2019s Reinsch Library Board Room and Reception area. Ambassador R\u00e9ka Szemerk\u00e9nyi, and HIF Board Member Dr. Tam\u00e1s Fellegi, who were on campus for the day\u2019s commencement ceremonies, dropped by the dinner to mingle with participants. On Sunday morning, Elizabeth (Dyar) Stiff, Co-Founder of Native Collaboration, held a social media outreach and strategy workshop for participants. She provided a brief overview of various forms of social media platforms and led an exercise on how to develop a strategic communication plan. Next, Anna Voloshin, Senior Director of Development at The McCain Institute for International Leadership, held a professional development session on fundraising and grant writing. She led an interactive discussion on the basic tenets of successful fundraising events and strategies, while asking for participants to share their own personal examples. After lunch, Csilla Grauzer, President, Minnesota Hungarians and VP of the Coalition joined Melissa Katko Pepkin, AHF, to share stories about non-traditional funding vehicles that had been successful in their own communities. They provided practical advice on where to access lists of potential grants and how to reach outside of the Hungarian community for support. Grauzer, who has attended several HATOG Conferences in the past, addressed the focus on youth outreach at this year\u2019s event. \u201cBringing younger and older Hungarian community members together to talk, share ideas, skills and knowledge allows both groups to understand more about each other and the needs of the community. The HATOG atmosphere encourages everyone involved to learn new skills, think creatively and make new relationships. Joining forces as equal partners gives young people real ownership and power in planning and decision-making and encourages them into leadership roles.\u201d Andrea Lauer Rice closed the conference by highlighting ways to keep the lines of communication open for this group and how to continue working together to solve community challenges. She also mentioned that the Coalition would likely be looking to organize the next HATOG XI somewhere on the West Coast. Among the participants, enthusiasm was high. Piros Pazaurek, HungarianHub in Daytona Beach attended her first HATOG, said \u201cIt was an honor to participate and experience a long weekend in the incredible atmosphere of Washington D.C. During the HATOG conference with Hungarians from all across the United States, we had the chance to share best practices and learned a lot about fundraising events and what other communities are doing. Overall this event was very beneficial to myself and to the HungarianHub as well.\u201d The organizers will post a report on HATOG X with the presentations in the near future.
