VIETNAMESE ASSOCIATION OF ILLINOIS
As the last three years have reminded us, inequity is amplified in crisis; the impact of COVID-19, remote schooling, and the struggle for racial justice have converged to create profound hardships for Chicago youth. These overlapping pandemics have made VAI analyze more critically and boldly about how we support our young people, leading us to redeploy our program in service of deepening student impact in the years that followed. While VAI’s extra-curricular programming has historically focused on encouraging a sense of belonging among participants, mostly from Vietnamese-immigrant background, what we’ve seen over the years is growing diversity in the Uptown community of Black, Brown, immigrant, and native-born youth. We recognize the importance of creating transformative relationships among the group of students and the families we work with. Given the pace at which young people are connecting to social justice issues, their relationships to each other and their community have never been more important. A $25,000 grant from Asian Giving Circle would bolster our efforts to reach even more young people in the Uptown neighborhood.

Chinese Mutual Aid Association Inc
CMAA, along with partners Indo-American Center and Apna Ghar, seek $25,000 to engage the community in the envisioning and development of a Pan-Asian American Center, a space for transformative collaboration where members of the AAPI community can access social, educational, and wellness services, engage in cultural exchange, and develop entrepreneurial skills. Through a series of cross-organization conversations, we collectively recognize the significance of our proposed project and believe a Pan-Asian American Center would be a unique asset to the Midwest and beyond. Our coalition, with a rich history of aiding immigrants and refugees, envisions the Center as a broader community resource, with verbal commitments from 15 diverse AAPI organizations. To ensure inclusivity, participation, comprehensiveness, and documentation, we aim to engage a consultant who will assess Chicagoland and suburban AAPI community needs and produce a comprehensive report to aid the development of our center.
