CAAM Forward: Celebration of Asian American Storytelling


Saturday, November 21, 2020
6:00-7:00 p.m. PST
Virtual

Join us for this special virtual fundraiser as we recognize the Center for Asian American Media’s (CAAM) 40th anniversary and hear from special guests and leaders in the field about the power of sharing our community’s stories to inspire, engage in critical dialogue, and catalyze change at an extraordinary time in our nation’s history.

Let’s move forward together and toast to a future of inclusive storytelling!

All proceeds for this fundraiser will support the CAAM Forward Campaign to sustain and strengthen CAAM’s vital work in building community, supporting filmmakers and artists, and realizing special initiatives that uplift marginalized voices. Thanks to supporters like you, CAAM is a recognized standard-bearer and largest presenter of diverse Asian American content in the country. But there is still much more to do to ensure the breadth of authentic Asian American stories are seen and heard.

Two anonymous supporters have generously pledged to match up to $125,000 of all donations. Donate today, and your gift will have twice the impact thanks to our donors’ matching gifts.
