Dear advocate,

Since 1973, OCA-Asian Pacific American Advocates has championed the rights of millions of Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders. As 2021 ends, I want to personally tell you how much we appreciate you and thousands of members for showing up alongside OCA during a particularly challenging year. Our work would not be possible without your support.

I’m also writing to you because your generosity is critical for our future. While urgency may have disappeared from the headlines, the twin crises of anti-Asian racism and the pandemic continue unabated—which means OCA’s efforts are urgently needed now more than ever.

If you haven’t already, I ask that you consider giving a year-end gift before midnight tonight. We’ve raised $41,966 so far, and your tax-deductible donation will directly support our internship programs and policy advocacy.

Every gift matters no matter the size, and every dollar helps to give deserving students the tools they need to succeed as the next generation of AAPI leaders, public servants, and changemakers.

From all of us at OCA, thank you for your continued commitment. We hope you have a safe and healthy New Year.

With gratitude and partnership,

Thu Nguyen
Executive Director, OCA-Asian Pacific American Advocates
