Support our work this season

Your donation makes a difference. Help us support AAPI grassroots organizations and strengthen our ecosystem to advance change and ensure a vibrant multiracial democracy for our communities.

As we reflect on the impact AAPI Civic Engagement Fund has had on 52 organizations in 21 states across the country this year, we know none of this critical work would be possible without the support of investors like you.

And as we look ahead to the new year, your continued tax-deductible commitment to building the legacy of organizing within our communities will help ensure our communities can prosper for generations to come.

Please consider making a tax-deductible donation today!

As a contributor to the AAPI Fund, you are:    

Strengthening a critical work that supports local organizations serving communities in 21 states and the District of Columbia, from the Pacific Northwest to the South, Midwest, and East Coast.

Over 90% of these groups are led by AAPI women. Currently, our work supports over 50 ethnic groups, prioritizing underrepresented and less resourced members of the AAPI community, including low-income, immigrants and refugees, women, youth, the elderly, and the disabled.

Building power and the legacy of AAPI organizing communities.

Despite a lack of institutional funding, AAPI communities share a long history of coming together to provide essential, culturally-responsive social services and programs. The AAPI Fund exists to accelerate and amplify these efforts—by trusting local leaders as experts and investing in their vision for change.

Helping crucial local organizations support community needs.

Our grantee partners provide vital services year-round to meet the immediate material needs of their communities, from setting up food banks to providing application assistance for affordable housing, quality health care, or navigating changes to the SNAP benefits programs. They also deploy rapid-response resources when the situation demands it. In the wake of ICE raids, grantee organizations formed rapid-response networks, providing know your rights training and providing legal referrals to keep communities safe and families together.

Our community motivates us.

In the face of extreme catastrophe, we’re so proud that our community has practiced compassion, solidarity, and courage. As we look to the coming year, we remain committed to supporting local AAPI organizations — the anchors that bring us together and make a hopeful future possible.
