We are evolving our donation list, but are currently raising funds for the causes and organizations listed below — and will provide full financial transparency.
VICTIMS OF ANTI-ASIAN HATE CRIME
‘This donation page was created to help the victims and their families impacted by the violent acts that took place on Tuesday, March 16, 2021. All donations will go directly to support the victims and their families.’
AAPI WOMEN & YOUTH EMPOWERMENT
National Asian Pacific American Women’s Forum
‘NAPAWF is the only organization focused on building power with AAPI women and girls to influence critical decisions that affect our lives, our families and our communities. Using a reproductive justice framework, we elevate AAPI women and girls to impact policy and drive systemic change in the United States.’
PROTECTING RIGHTS OF SEX WORKERS
Red Canary Song
‘We are the only grassroots Chinese massage parlor worker coalition in the U.S. There are over 9000 workplaces like these across the country with no political representation, or access to labor rights or collective organizing. Anti-trafficking NGO’s that claim to speak for migrants in sex trades promote increased policing and immigration control, which harms rather than helps migrant sex workers.’

ASIAN MENTAL HEALTH
Asian Mental Health Collective
‘The Asian Mental Health Collective aspires to make mental health easily available, approachable, and accessible to Asian communities worldwide.’
‘The Mission of the Chinatown Community Development Center is to build community and enhance the quality of life for San Francisco residents. We are a place-based community development organization serving primarily the Chinatown neighborhood, and also serve other areas including North Beach and the Tenderloin. We are a community development organization with many roles - as neighborhood advocates, organizers and planners, and as developers and managers of affordable housing.’
Join us in reaching a collective goal of $100,000 to fund and support AAPI causes and organizations. While you can donate directly to these organizations, through AWA, your funds will be distributed as a collective effort. With one donation, you can support many causes no matter how big or small your contribution. Every bit counts!
