Dear AdvOCAtes,

We hope you and your loved ones are safe and well during this holiday season. As former National Presidents, we write to you today to extend our deepest appreciation for your continual support of OCA-Asian Pacific American Advocates.

Your time, passion, and generosity have sustained OCA as a nationally-recognized AAPI advocacy organization for decades, allowing us to overcome monumental obstacles. Your commitment during the pandemic has been no different. Despite numerous challenges, we have watched OCA’s work with confidence, knowing that thousands of members, chapter leaders, and community partners are powering its success.

However, to keep the momentum of our work going, your support is needed more than ever. OCA relies on donations from grassroots advocates like you to continue our programs, fund our internship and policy team, and provide services for those in need. 

The impact of your contributions is clear—you’ve empowered OCA to create life-changing experiences for 500+ summer interns, cultivate the next generation of AAPI professionals, fight anti-AAPI attacks, and ensure our communities can fully participate in our democracy.

Today, we are asking for your support to reach the year-end fundraising goal of $150,000 so that we can sustain OCA’s achievements. We’ve raised more than $38,000 so far, and no contribution is too small.

SUPPORT OUR WORK

By making a tax-deductible gift this holiday season, you will maintain our ability to provide critical resources today while strengthening a pipeline of AAPI leaders for tomorrow.

With warm holiday greetings,
