During this season of giving, we invite you to join us in standing by the stories that make a difference.
“I’ve been at CAAM for 30 years. I can say full heartedly I’m more excited for our storytelling community than ever before. I recognize it’s a difficult moment, but it’s a time in which we’ve got to focus on building community, supporting one another, standing by one another, defending the work we all care about.”
– Don Young, CAAM Executive Director
At CAAM, every story we tell and every filmmaker we support is part of a larger circle built on mentorship, generosity, and community. From the storytellers who came before us to the new voices rising today, we are all connected by a shared belief: it takes a village to create something lasting. Your contribution of any amount will help ensure this circle continually evolves from one generation to the next.
Our goal is to raise $25,000 by December 31 to support the next generation of storytellers who will carry this legacy forward and help define the stories we share in the years to come. Together, we can ensure that incredible storytelling not only continues but flourishes.
Support Asian American Stories
Your gift will go even further: Thanks to the generosity of two CAAM board members, up to $10,000 in contributions will be matched, doubling your impact and helping us reach our goal.
Join us in building the future of Asian American storytelling: It takes a village—and we’re grateful you’re part of ours!
