The Movement Forward Campaign

An action fund and endowment to protect the civil rights of Asian Americans and advance multiracial democracy for the next 50 years and beyond

With its established leadership and demonstrated credentials for the past 50 years, CAA is uniquely positioned to have a major impact on the civil rights and social, political and economic well-being of immigrants and communities of color. Contributions and support allow CAA leadership to be innovative, flexible and responsive to the changing landscape of AAPI community needs. For instance, CAA was a founding partner of Stop AAPI Hate, a coalition that shaped a nationwide conversation to address the root causes of anti-Asian racism during the COVID-19 pandemic and rise of anti-Asian hate and xenophobia.

Join our Movement Forward in waging positive and lasting change. The Campaign has raised $3.91 million to date for the Action Fund and Endowment.

THE ACTION FUND, an unrestricted fund, will allow CAA to take immediate and aggressive action to educate, organize, and mobilize the community for national impact. This fund allows CAA to be nimble and flexible in the face of emerging challenges and to step up as a community leader where one is needed.

THE ENDOWMENT will enable CAA to protect civil rights and equality for many years to come. Endowment gifts preserve the enduring vision and values of our founders – that of a robust, independent advocacy organization committed to a diverse democracy in which all people are able to live free from bigotry and discrimination. Planned, legacy, and named gifts are common ways to contribute to the endowment.

The Movement Forward Campaign will resource CAA to proactively address our core mission: to advocate for systemic change that protects immigrant rights, promotes language diversity, and remedies racial and social injustice.  

Your contributions to the Movement Forward Campaign will help CAA be prepared to protect our community and civil rights during our greatest time of need. Our vigilance is of utmost importance during these volatile and divisive times.
