#GiveInMay to Support Our Newsroom Intern

We're raising $2,100 to support the next generation of hard-hitting Asian journalists

Dear Reader,

Although the Trump Administration eliminated federal recognition of Asian American, Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander Heritage Month, observed since 1991, we will never stop recognizing the community we belong to and serve.

Former President George H.W. Bush issues a proclamation designating May as AAPI Heritage Month in the United States at the Oval Office,. Surrounding him are nine Asian American military officers and a white official.

This summer, we are hosting a newsroom intern for the first time, in partnership with the CUNY Newmark J-Corps. We are aiming to raise $2,100 to partially cover the intern’s salary. To do so, we are joining Give In May, a national giving campaign, and locking arms with AANHPI nonprofits across the country.

If everyone who received this email gave $4, we would meet our goal!

When democracy is at stake, do you believe in journalism for Asian Americans, by Asian Americans?

Yes, I'll #GiveInMay today!

Thank you so much!

With gratitude,
