Mission and programs · 2023

Mission

The AAAF mission is to advocate for the civil and human rights of Asian Americans, Pacific Islanders, and Native Hawaiians in GA. Through a combination of policy advocacy at local, state and federal levels, and by supporting candidates that believe in our values.

  • Leadership Development: We partnered with the Tennessee Immigrant and Refugee Rights Coalition Votes to host the inaugural nonpartisan Rising Tide Southeast/Immigrant and Refugee Candidate and Campaign Staff Training. 43 participants from nine states, including Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Mississippi, North Carolina, and Tennessee, attended this non-partisan training meant to prepare first- and second-generation immigrant and refugee candidates and campaign staff with the knowledge, tools, and resources they need to run successfully for office across the Southeast.

    Expenses $88,827 · Grants $88,827

  • Direct Voter Contact: conducted deep canvassing programs to learn more about the issues that our communities care most about. These programs were nonpartisan in nature and did not discuss any candidate or party.

    Expenses $84,136 · Grants $84,136

  • Arts & Culture: We launched the Threads of Justice, a project in which we asked 12 Asian American artists, designers, and other creatives in Georgia to create publicly displayed art that calls for change, unity, and power building amongst AAPIs and other communities of color. With repurposed denim jackets as their medium, the artists explored what it means to be Asian in the American South, weaving the stories of our communities into the rich tapestry of social justice that exists in Georgia.

    Expenses $43,369 · Grants $43,369

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those.
