Xiaoteng Huang joins Community Health Charities’ National Board of Directors

Community Health Charities unanimously elected PinKU Japanese Co-Founder and Managing Partner Xiaoteng Huang to its board of directors.

Alexandria, Va. (Sept 21, 2017) — Community Health Charities unanimously elected PinKU Japanese Co-Founder and Managing Partner Xiaoteng Huang to its board of directors, effective September 2017.

“Serving on the board of Community Health Charities is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for me,” said Huang. “Too many young people today don’t have a deep understanding of the healthcare challenges facing our country and workplace. My goal is to bring a millennial perspective to the mission of Community Health Charities to make it more pertinent and engaging to a newer generation of workplace givers.”

Huang is Managing Partner at PinkU Japanese Street Food where he works to create an authentic, chef-inspired, fine-casual restaurant brand for Japanese street food. Huang and his business partner opened PinKU Japanese in 2016 in Minneapolis. After amassing a portfolio of prestigious awards in the Minneapolis-St. Paul area including Best New Restaurants and Best Sushi, they are working on expansion plans. Prior to pursuing his entrepreneurial dream, Huang worked at multiple Fortune 100 companies, including Target, Citigroup, Goldman Sachs, and IBM.
