Donate to our Partner Charity

We highlight a different AAPI/BIPOC-focused organization or business to support on a seasonal basis aligning with our event programming. As we welcome spring, we will be fundraising for CAAAV.org. From their website:

”CAAAV: Organizing Asian Communities was founded in 1986 by Asian women to build power in Asian communities against rising police and hate violence. Over time, our analysis deepened and our work broadened to fighting institutional and systemic racism and violence in Asian immigrant communities.

CAAAV’s purpose is to develop the leadership of working class Asian immigrants to make a significant intervention in the gentrification of NYC by building neighborhood power in Chinatown and Astoria. Chinatown and Astoria are neighborhoods where Asian immigrants are the one of the driving forces of the working class, and could potentially shift the long-term political landscape of the city.”

Please feel free to donate directly to them and if you feel inclined to—tell them #Chinatownrunners sent ya!
