HOW YOU CAN HELP

Due to the pandemic, AAJA Seattle had to cancel its largest fundraiser, Chef’s Showcase. The Lunar New Year event will help to make up the gap. The need is great right now. It’s never been more important to have diversity in local media. From Covid to the racial justice uprisings, Asian American journalists are telling critical stories that would otherwise not be told.

These funds will help:

• Fund scholarships for local journalists of color to build the next generation
• Support programming that advances equity and inclusion in local news coverage
• Support journalists of color and keep much-needed POC voices in news and communications
• Support members who are struggling due to Covid through emergency grants

Our fundraising goal is $3,000 – thank you for helping us get there!

Excited to see you all there!
